Russia pounded Kyiv with a massive bombardment that killed four people, authorities said on Sunday, with Moscow unleashing its nuclear-capable hypersonic Oreshnik missile in one of the largest barrages in the more-than-four-year war.Multiple rounds of loud explosions were heard in the Ukrainian capital throughout the early hours of the morning, journalists reported, as residents took shelter in underground stations. Daylight revealed rescue workers extinguishing fires and sifting through debris of heavily damaged buildings — houses, shopping centers, museums, theaters, schools and universities.Russian President Vladimir Putin had earlier threatened retaliation for Ukrainian strikes in Russian-occupied eastern Ukraine that killed 21 people in a vocational school.
