Russia launched an unprecedented drone and missile attack on Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, on Sunday killing at least three people, including a 1-year-old child. A key government building was left with smoke rising from the roof as a devastating fire raged below. 805 drones and decoys and 13 missiles descended on Ukraine overnight on Sunday, marking the largest such attack since the invasion began.
Ukraine successfully shot down and neutralized 747 of the drones and 4 missiles, the Air Force said. However, 37 locations across the country were still hit by the nine other missiles and 56 drone strikes. "For the first time, the government building was damaged by an enemy attack, including the roof and upper floors," said Ukraine's Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko. "We will restore the buildings, but lost lives cannot be returned."
