Aftermath of Russian missile and drone attacks on Ukraine
Russia has launched a second straight day of missile and drone attacks, targeting several Ukrainian regions and killing at least five people. Two people were killed when a hotel was "wiped out" by a missile in the central city of Kryvyi Rih, regional officials said on Tuesday. Three died in drone attacks on the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday said Kyiv would retaliate and asked allies to consider joint air defence operations and provide long-range weapons capabilities. Ukraine's air force said it downed five of 10 incoming Russian missiles and 60 of 81 drones in Tuesday's attacks.
