Ukraine says Russia launched largest missile, drone assault

|July 10, 2025
Russia pummelled Ukraine with its largest missile and drone attack in more than three years of war, claiming to have targeted an airfield in a region bordering EU and Nato member Poland.
The strike comes after US Donald Trump said he would ramp up arms deliveries to Ukraine and accused his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin of talking “bullshit” on Ukraine.
AFP journalists in Kyiv heard explosions ringing out and drones buzzing over the capital during the barrage after air raid sirens sounded.
The latest strike, which regional officials said Killed one civilian in the Khmelnytsky region, beat a previous Russian record of 550 drones and missiles set last week.
The air force said Russia attacked with 728 drones and 13 missiles, adding that its air defence systems intercepted 711 drones and destroyed seven missiles.
“This is a telling attack ~ and it comes precisely at a time when so many efforts have been made to achieve peace, to establish a ceasefire, and yet only Russia continues to rebuff them all,” President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote on sociai media.
