Russia’s Relentless Terror on Kyiv: Massive Ballistic Missile and Drone Attacks Devastate the City!
For hours, Kyiv has been shaking under waves of explosions that rocked the city during the night of July 3rd and 4th. Russia launched a massive attack with ballistic missiles and drones targeting the capital and other cities across Ukraine. Kyiv’s mayor, Vitali Klitschko, confirmed that at least 19 people were injured, with 14 hospitalized.
Destruction of Civil Infrastructure and Danger to Civilians The attacks damaged residential buildings, businesses, a school, a medical facility, railway tracks, and other civilian infrastructure across multiple city districts. Fires broke out throughout the city, making the air hazardous to breathe. Timur Tkachenko, head of Kyiv’s military administration, warned residents to close windows due to dangerous levels of combustion products in the air.
Attack Details and Consequences The attacks began around 10 PM on July 3rd and continued into the early hours of July 4th. Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russia fired a ballistic missile at Kyiv, followed by several more missiles. Drones caused fires on rooftops of residential buildings, business premises, and warehouses. Vehicles were set ablaze, and drone debris fell near schools and residential buildings.
What Does Russia Want? These attacks came just hours after a phone call between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, during which Putin reiterated that Russia would continue pursuing its goals in Ukraine despite Western calls for a ceasefire. Ukrainian officials warn that the aim of these attacks is to exhaust air defense systems and intimidate civilians.
Increasingly Frequent and Brutal Attacks Kyiv and other major Ukrainian cities have been suffering intensified drone and missile attacks, with Russia using Iranian-designed Shahed drones in record numbers. On June 17th, Russia carried out one of its largest attacks on Kyiv since the invasion began, killing 28 people and injuring many more.
Why Is the West Holding Back? Despite these brutal attacks, the US has decided to halt deliveries of Patriot missiles and other promised weapons to Kyiv, citing the need to bolster its own stockpiles. Is the West truly committed to helping Ukraine hold out, or is this a quiet surrender to Russian terror?
Conclusion: Terror That Never Ends Russia brings nothing but death and destruction. Kyiv is under siege, and civilians are suffering terrible consequences. As the world watches, missiles and drones keep falling, and hope for peace drifts further away.
Think this is the end? Think again. The war goes on, and the question is how long Kyiv can endure this hell. What do you think — will the West finally stand with Ukraine, or will it let this terror continue? Drop a comment, let’s hear your voice from the darkness!
