Russian strikes kill eight, injure dozens across Ukraine, Zelenskyy says

Russian strikes killed eight people and injured dozens across Ukraine, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Zelenskyy said Russia launched nearly 4,000 drones, aerial bombs and missiles at Ukraine over the past week, describing the scale of the bombardment as part of an intensified campaign.

The Ukrainian leader's statement pointed to the toll on civilians and infrastructure from the barrage, though full details of the locations and extent of the damage were not immediately given.

The reported strikes come amid continued fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces, with both sides regularly exchanging attacks across multiple regions.
