Russia has launched a significant aerial assault on Ukraine over the past week, employing a combination of missiles, glide bombs, and drones. In the past 24 hours, cities in Ukraine's east, south, and center have been heavily targeted. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Russia used more than 800 guided aerial bombs, around 600 strike drones, including a record 145 Shaheds, and nearly 20 missiles in the past week. This campaign marks an intensification of the deadly aerial attacks that began two months ago.
