> Russia attacked Kyiv for a sixth consecutive day, with a ballistic missile hitting a railway depot and killing at least seven people. Fires and further casualties were reported across the capital and Kyiv region. Estonia said drones briefly entered its airspace, prompting a NATO response, as EU defense ministers met to discuss Ukraine’s air defenses and Moscow’s “hybrid” threat.
