Russia carried out a massive air attack on Ukraine a day before the leaders of NATO countries are set to meet for their annual summit. Eleven people were killed and 46 injured in the overnight strikes on Kyiv that caused damage in four districts of the city, according to a post on Telegram by Mayor Vitali Klitschko. Rescue efforts are continuing at more than 20 locations, the city's top military administrator says.
Monday's assault was the second on the capital in less than a week. At least 10 people were killed and dozens wounded.
Bloomberg reported the story as "Russian Strike on Kyiv Kills 11 Ahead of NATO Summit." Al Jazeera English reported the story as "Russian attacks on Ukraine kill 11 on eve of NATO summit, authorities say." The Sun US reported the story as "At least 11 killed & children among 46 injured as Putin unleashes hundreds of drones & missiles on Kyiv."
