Welcome to the "News Hour."Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy today vowed a forceful response after an overnight barrage of Russian missiles and drones killed at least 25 people in Kyiv and wounded many more. Ukraine has also intensified its own campaign, launching waves of drones deep inside Russia and striking military sites and oil refineries. Those attacks have contributed to fuel shortages in parts of Russia.Yet, despite the escalating strikes on both sides, the front lines have changed little nearly 4.5 years into this war.Stephanie Sy reports.
Stephanie Sy:
In Kyiv today: the aftermath of another night of Russian aggression. Workers dig through the charred husks of what were once homes carrying out bodies.Elsewhere, rescue workers rush to recover the living, pinned down in pain by the rubble, the latest devastation a lot even for the battle-worn emergency workers. Neighbors gathered with forlorn faces, the flurry of Russian attacks that occurred overnight among the heaviest and deadliest on the Capitol since the war began, lighting up the early morning sky and carving craters outside apartment blocks.
