Two killed in Russian strike on Kyiv as Ukraine confirms Kursk incursion
At least two people have been killed and three others wounded in an overnight Russian air strike outside of Kyiv, Ukrainian officials have said.
A four-year-old boy and his 35-year-old father were killed in the attack on Sunday just east of Kyiv, which President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claimed involved a North Korean-made missile.
Sunday’s attack on Kyiv comes as Ukraine braces for more Russian attacks in retaliation for its recent cross-border incursion into the Kursk region.
Kyiv dispatched hundreds of servicemen backed by armoured vehicles, artillery and drones to the Kursk region on Tuesday, according to Russian officials, Ukrainian servicemen and media reports.
On Saturday, Zelenskyy acknowledged that Ukrainian forces were indeed fighting in Kursk, and said the operation was part of Kyiv’s attempt to restore justice after Russia invaded his country in 2022.

A 3day war has now turned into a 3year war.
tudu de bom
It's shameful
Russia's military is a clown show.
Humiliation for russia. Russia is a joke.
Before Gaza war, when you hear 2-5 civilians killed, there was outrage and anger but now when I hear 20, it feels like Russia is very careful with civilian casualties giving that Israel started with 270 per day.
Israel have successfully normalised mass slaughter of civilians & never in history have I seen any nation allowed to go on a killing rampage with impunity.. not even the Americans would have enjoyed such support or silence from both the media’s and governments 😡
YouTube, EZEKIEL 38 wars.
Countries destroyed.
Somalia Sudan Libya Yemen Afghanistan Iraq Syria Lebanon Palestine Russia Rohingya Uighur Kashmir Kosovan.

Why would Russia use air defense in Kyviv when it needs to liberate kursk? Trust these news channels at your own risk. There are few press which give right information. Always do your own research.
