Russian Drone Attacks Kill Five in Ukraine, Including Two at Kyiv Market

Russian drone strikes killed five people across Ukraine on Sunday, including two at a market in Sofiiska Borshchahivka on Kyiv's western outskirts, according to Ukrainian prosecutors. The attack injured about 10 others and ignited installations and vehicles, with debris scattered across the area, as shown in online images. Three additional deaths occurred in separate strikes in other regions, and Kyiv itself also came under attack, local officials reported. President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the assaults as 'terrorism' after Russia launched strikes almost continuously throughout the day. The market strike is the latest in a series of attacks on civilian areas since Russia's full-scale invasion began in February 2022. The use of Iranian-made Shahed drones has been a recurring feature of these assaults, though the source did not specify the drone type in this incident. The attacks occurred amid ongoing international debates over military aid to Ukraine and the enforcement of sanctions against Russia. No further details on the victims' identities or the extent of damage were immediately available. The strikes underscore the persistent danger to civilians in Ukraine, particularly in areas near the capital.
