Russian attacks on Ukraine kill 2 people a day after deadly shopping mall drone strike
KYIV: At least two people were killed overnight in Ukraine by Russian drone and missile strikes, authorities said, a day after an attack on a shopping center killed 16 people.
Oleksandr Pertsovsky, the head of Ukraine’s national rail operator Ukrzaliznytsia, said Saturday that one of the company’s employees was killed in an overnight ballistic missile attack on the railway in the capital Kyiv.
Russia’s Ministry of Defense said Saturday its forces had hit a locomotive depot.
Moscow’s forces have recently intensified their ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv, exploiting Ukraine’s chronic shortage of US-made Patriot air defense interceptors, the sole weapon in its arsenal able to shoot down the missiles.
