Russian attacks across Ukraine killed 10 people and wounded dozens on Monday, authorities said, with strikes continuing into the afternoon as the death toll climbed. A missile attack in the southeastern city of Dnipro killed six people and wounded 29, regional governor Oleksandr Hanzha said. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that Russia launched a missile strike on Dnipro, targeting infrastructure, and that rescue operations were underway. He also emphasized the need for Europe to develop its own anti-ballistic defense systems. A Russian drone attack on a passenger minibus in Zaporizhzhia killed two men and a woman, and injured eight others, including a 7-year-old boy, regional officials said. Another attack on the city later hit a civilian van. A glide bomb also hit the northeastern city of Kharkiv, killing a 23-year-old woman and wounding 10 others, according to officials.
