A Russian strike near Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, has killed 37 people, marking one of the deadliest single attacks on the country so far this year.
The strike occurred against the backdrop of roughly 72 hours of nearly continuous drone strikes across Ukraine, which have severely disrupted daily life for residents nationwide. The sustained wave of attacks has affected multiple areas of the country, adding further strain on a nation already grappling with prolonged conflict.
Sustained pressure
The near-constant drone activity over the past three days points to an intensified pace of Russian military action, spreading disruption across a wide area with little letup. The high death toll from the strike near Kyiv sets it apart as one of the most severe single incidents of the year.
