Ukraine came under a wave of Russian airstrikes as President Vladimir Putin attended a military parade in China. According to Ukrainian officials, several cities were targeted overnight, damaging infrastructure and leaving many residents without power.
Air defense systems intercepted a number of missiles, but authorities reported casualties and injuries from the attacks. Emergency teams were deployed to affected areas, with efforts underway to restore essential services.
The strikes coincided with Putin’s visit to China, where he participated in a high-profile parade, highlighting the strengthening ties between Moscow and Beijing. Analysts say the timing of the assault sends a strong signal amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
The international community has condemned the escalation, with calls for restraint and renewed efforts toward ending the conflict.
