Russian strikes kill 16 in Ukraine, Zelenskyy says lack of Patriots costs lives

Russian strikes killed 16 people and injured more than 40 in Kyiv and the surrounding region on Thursday as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a failure by Ukraine’s allies to replenish its stock of air defense missiles was costing lives.

Ukraine’s air force said Russia launched dozens of ballistic, cruise and hypersonic missiles, as well as 168 drones, in the massive overnight attack.

While Ukraine downed nearly 90% of the drones and most of the cruise missiles, all of the faster ballistic missiles got through, causing significant damage.
