New Delhi ( The Indian View team) : <\/strong>Russia launched hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles against Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities overnight, killing at least 16 civilians and wounding more than 100 others. Ukrainian authorities today said the damage trapped some people under the rubble of apartment buildings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials said, emergency crews digging through the wreckage pulled out the body of a three-year-old child and the bodies of a mother and her eight-year-old son in the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kyiv residents had been on edge for days after Russia warned that a massive aerial attack was coming and warned foreign diplomats to leave the Ukrainian capital. None appeared to heed the call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russian President Vladimir Putin has stepped up Moscow\u2019s aerial campaign against Ukraine, with Russian forces recently launching a powerful hypersonic Oreshnik ballistic missile for only the third time in the four-year war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
