World'Terrifying': deadly Russian attack on Kyiv overwhelms Ukraine's air defence

A brutal Russian assault on Kyiv and the surrounding region has killed at least 17 people, including eight at a railway station. Ukraine’s air defences intercepted most of the drones involved, but failed to stop any Russian missile. The country is struggling with a crucial shortage of US-made ballistic interceptors, leaving its ability to protect the capital under severe strain.
