Russia launched a massive attack on Ukraine's capital city early Friday morning. The assault broke all previous records with 550 drones and 11 missiles raining down on Kyiv. Thick smoke covered the city after hours of explosions and gunfire from defense systems. Ukrainian officials said 72 drones managed to break through their air defenses. The bombardment lasted more than eight hours and hit nearly every part of the capital.

The devastating attack came right after Donald Trump spoke with Vladimir Putin on the phone. Trump told reporters he felt disappointed because Putin showed no interest in stopping the war. The Russian leader seems determined to continue fighting despite international pressure to negotiate peace. Trump said Putin clearly wasn't ready to end the conflict that has destroyed much of Ukraine.

At least 23 people got hurt during the nighttime strikes across Kyiv. Fires burned throughout the city as emergency crews rushed to help victims and put out blazes. Railway systems suffered damage and many buildings caught fire from the explosions. Cars burned on streets as residents took shelter from the deadly assault.

Ukraine's foreign minister called it one of the worst nights the capital has experienced. He demanded stronger sanctions against Russia for the brutal attack on civilians. The strikes represent part of Russia's increased bombing campaign as peace talks have stalled. The war has raged for more than three years since Russia first invaded Ukraine.
