Then and now: Russia's missile and drone strikes on Ukraine
Compiled Aug 3
Russia has continued its campaign of missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities, with recent strikes including a ballistic missile and drone barrage on Kyiv that killed at least nine people, and glide bomb attacks on Zaporizhzhia killing one and wounding dozens. Ukraine has responded with its own drone strikes inside Russian territory, targeting industrial sites and civilian infrastructure, killing at least five people. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has sought US support to gain Elon Musk's permission to use Starlink satellite technology to guide strikes deeper into Russia. The conflict continues to cause significant civilian casualties on both sides, with no signs of an imminent resolution.
