URGENT: Russian Aerial Attack Kills Three in Ukraine, Situation Critical.

URGENT: Russian Aerial Attack Kills Three in Ukraine, Situation Critical At least three people have been killed and over 30 injured in a "massive" overnight Russian aerial attack on Ukraine, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. The attack targeted regions across the country, including residential areas. The Ukrainian air force reports that Moscow launched 619 drones and missiles, with one direct hit reported on a residential building. Russia's defence ministry claims its "massive strike" used "precision weapons" to target military-industrial facilities. President Zelensky accused Russia of using a "deliberate strategy" to intimidate civilians and destroy Ukraine's infrastructure. The attack has left many without power or access to basic necessities. This is the latest escalation in the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, which began with President Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion in 2022. The situation remains critical as both sides continue to exchange fire. Ukraine says it will not back down in the face of Russian aggression, while Russia claims its actions are necessary to protect its interests. The international community is calling for an immediate ceasefire and a return to diplomatic talks. This is a developing story, with updates expected throughout the day. *This is a developing story.
