Russia hit Ukraine with 367 drones and missiles, a spokesperson for Ukraine’s Air Force says. It was the largest single aerial attack of the more than three-years-long war. Kyiv Day is a national holiday that falls on the last Sunday of May. Russian air defenses shot down 110 Ukrainian drones overnight. At least four people were killed and 16 were injured in Kyiv.

Liubov Fedorenko, 76, compares their village to some of Ukraine’s most devastated cities. “The street looks like Bakhmut, like Mariupol, it’s just terrible,” she says. Russia’s defense ministry said it expected the exchange to be continued. The previous night, explosions and anti-aircraft fire were heard throughout Kyiv as many sought shelter in subway stations as Russian drones and missiles targeted the Ukrainian capital.
