At least six people were killed and dozens injured after Russia launched a fresh wave of missile and drone attacks across Ukraine on Saturday, July 11, 2026, according to Ukrainian officials. The attacks targeted multiple regions, including the capital Kyiv, where air defense systems were activated.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy renewed his plea for Western allies to provide additional air defense systems, emphasizing the urgent need to protect civilian infrastructure and lives. The attacks come amid ongoing Russian offensives in eastern and southern Ukraine.
Local authorities reported that rescue operations are underway in affected areas. The exact number of casualties may rise as search and rescue efforts continue. International condemnation of the attacks has been swift, with calls for increased military aid to Ukraine.
