    Russia launched over 300 drones and 7 missiles, 2 of which were North Korean-made ballistic missiles, at Ukraine overnight, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claimed. In the overnight attack, Russia launched a large drone attack on Ukraine, targeting Kyiv and causing damage to a maternity facility in Odesa’s southern port, according to regional authorities’ reports on Tuesday. Demanding swift action from the world, Zelenskyy said that it is vital that the response to the Russian attacks should not be silence from the world. “Russian missile and Shahed strikes drown out the efforts of the United States and others around the world to force Russia into peace. For yet another night, instead of a ceasefire, there were massive strikes with Shahed drones, cruise and ballistic missiles. Today was one of the largest attacks on Kyiv. Odesa, Dnipro region, and Chernihiv region were also targeted,” Zelenskyy said in a post on X. He claimed that Russia used 315 drones in the attack, including 250 Shaheds, and 7 missiles, 2 of which were North Korean-made ballistic missiles. According to him, a maternity hospital in desa als became a Russian target. “It is vital that the response to this and other similar Russian attacks is not silence from the world, but concrete action. Action from America, which has the power to force Russia into peace. Action from Europe, which has no alternative but to be strong. Action from others around the world who called for diplomacy and an end to the war – and whom Russia has ignored. There must be strong pressure for the sake of peace,” he added. The overnight strikes came after Russia launched the largest drone attack against Ukraine on Monday, part of heightened military activities that Moscow claims are in response to Ukraine’s recent bold incursions into Russian territory, Reuters reported.In the early hours of Tuesday, medical teams responded to emergencies in four Kyiv districts, including the historic Podil area, as reported by Mayor Vitali Klitschko via Telegram.
