What is happening?
During the night between Thursday and Friday, Russia launched a massive drone attack targeting the Ukrainian capital, Kiyv, and suburbs of the city.
Biggest of the war yet

Polish Consulate hit
In a post on X, the Polish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Radosław Sikorski, posted a picture of massive fires and smokeplumes over Kiyv, adding that the Polish Consulate in the Ukrainian capital was hit in the Russian attack.
“Putin is mocking you”
In the post, Sikorski wrote:
“President Trump, Putin is mocking your peace efforts.”
Hours after Trump/Putin phone call
The attack on Kiyv occured mear hours after the US President Donald Trump had a phone call with the Russian President, Vladimir Putin.
“Discouraging”
Afterwards, Trump described the call as “discouraging”, saying he did not “get anywhere” with the Russian President.
Urged to restore supplies
Later in the post, Sikorski urged Trump to restore supplies of anti-aircraft ammunition for Ukraine.
Earlier this week, the US halted some military aid for Ukraine, citing low domestic stockpiles.
