Russia’s massive 550-drone-and-missile strike on Kyiv, Ukraine came after a lengthy call between Trump and Putin, during which Moscow made clear it has no intention of backing down.
It’s been crazy. I counted around 50 explosions really close by. First, there were drones, which I believe exhausted the air defenses. Then, around 2–3 AM, they launched three waves of ballistic missiles. Those were insanely loud. Noise cancelling headphones actually helped a lot. I could still hear the explosions, but it wasn’t as scary. I was just trying to distract myself by watching random YouTube Shorts. Honestly, it’s a miracle the casualty rate wasn’t as high as during previous attacks - because this one was definitely the biggest so far.
