Kyiv death toll hits 24 after Russian cruise missile slams apartment block amid biggest barrage claims

A Russian cruise missile strike on a nine-story apartment block in Kyiv has killed at least 24 people, including three teenagers, with emergency crews finishing searches after more than a day of rubble clearing. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called it part of Russia’s biggest barrage since the full-scale invasion began, saying the city saw 48 wounded. He also said the missile was built in the second quarter of this year, suggesting continued sanctions evasion, as airports and regional targets were hit.
