Ukrainian rescue teams are continuing a desperate search for survivors after one of the deadliest Russian attacks on Kyiv in recent months left at least 30 people dead and dozens more injured.


Emergency crews have been working around the clock, clearing mountains of rubble from a collapsed residential building as heavy machinery removes concrete slabs and twisted metal in the hope of finding anyone still trapped beneath the debris.


The overnight drone and missile assault struck multiple neighborhoods across the Ukrainian capital, damaging apartment buildings, civilian infrastructure, and emergency facilities.


Ukrainian officials say at least 91 people were injured in the attack, with many receiving treatment at hospitals across the city.


Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko described it as the largest attack on the capital in terms of the number of drones and missiles launched in a single assault.


Military authorities said several districts were hit simultaneously, overwhelming emergency responders and causing widespread destruction.


The strikes came just hours after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Russia appeared to be preparing another large-scale offensive against Ukrainian cities.


As rescue operations continue and authorities assess the full scale of the damage, the latest attack underscores the ongoing intensity of the conflict and the heavy toll it continues to take on civilians across Ukraine.
