Russia pounds Kyiv with 21 ballistic missiles and 210 drones overnight, hours after talks agreed
Russia launched a massive combined missile and drone strike on Ukraine overnight into 22 October, with the main target being Kyiv. Three waves of ballistic missiles struck the capital, killing one person, injuring 22 and damaging residential buildings, a monastery, a hypermarket, a metro bridge and other civilian sites. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the attack came immediately after the latest round of negotiations and showed no real change in Russia's attitude, while Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha contrasted the destruction with US envoy Steve Witkoff's recent description of Vladimir Putin as a "humanist".
