AP PHOTOS: Kyiv Comes Under Large-Scale Russian Drone and Missile Attack
- In the early hours of Saturday, Kyiv was targeted by an extensive barrage of Russian drones and missiles, occurring shortly after Russia and Ukraine conducted a significant prisoner exchange.
- The attack came shortly after a prisoner swap was carried out, as part of a complex agreement reached in Istanbul last week, which included the release of 1,000 detainees from each side.
- Fragments from drones landed on a shopping center and a nearby residential area in Kyiv’s Obolon district; six individuals needed medical attention, and two separate fires erupted.
- President Zelenskyy announced that the initial stage of the prisoner exchange resulted in 390 Ukrainians being returned, a figure Russia’s Defense Ministry confirmed as the number of prisoners they received from Ukraine.
- Despite the swap being the largest involving civilians, fighting continued along the 1,000-kilometer front, and diplomatic talks have yet to produce agreements.
