Ukraine

Missiles rained down on Ukraine again on Tuesday in a major Russian attack. In terms of the number and types of missiles, the attack was almost a reproduction of Russia’s major attack on Ukraine on December 29, according to Ukraine’s Air Force. The air strike on Friday last week, in which 158 missiles and drones were launched against Ukraine, has been described as the largest of its kind in the nearly two-year war. On Tuesday morning, Russia fired 99 missiles and many drones at Ukraine. 72 of the missiles were shot down, according to General Valery Zaluzhny, the commander of the Ukrainian forces. /ritzau/
