Russian Missile Barrage on Ukraine City Kills 16
Quick Glance: Russia Strikes Chernihiv: 18 Dead, Ukraine Appeals for Air Defense
  • At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

  • Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

  • Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

  • A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.
