乌克兰基辅（美联社）——官员周四表示，俄罗斯用数百架无人机和数十枚导弹袭击了乌克兰的平民区，袭击持续了数小时，从白天一直延续到深夜，造成至少16人死亡，80多人受伤。这是近两周来规模最大的一次空袭。
当局称，俄罗斯发射了近700架无人机和数十枚弹道及巡航导弹，主要针对平民。自四年多前全面入侵以来，莫斯科的部队几乎每天都会打击平民区。联合国表示，已有超过1.5万名乌克兰平民在袭击中丧生。
此次轰炸发生在乌克兰总统泽连斯基结束对德国、挪威和意大利为期48小时的访问之后。泽连斯基在访问中紧急寻求更多能够拦截俄罗斯导弹的防空系统。乌克兰担心对伊朗的战争正在消耗其所需的美国先进系统库存，并反对美国对俄罗斯石油制裁的临时豁免，基辅称这有助于资助克里姆林宫的战争。
泽连斯基在社交媒体上表示：“又一个夜晚证明，俄罗斯不配获得全球政策的任何放宽或制裁的解除。”他感谢德国、挪威和意大利本周在支持乌克兰防空方面达成的新协议，并指出官员们也在与荷兰就额外供应进行合作。同时他指出，一些伙伴国家尚未兑现军事支持的承诺，他已指示空军司令联系那些此前承诺提供爱国者及其他系统导弹的伙伴。

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia hammered civilian areas of Ukraine with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles in an attack that stretched for hours from daytime into the night, killing at least 16 people and injuring more than 80 others in its biggest aerial barrage in almost two weeks, officials said Thursday.
Russia launched nearly 700 drones and dozens of ballistic and cruise missiles, primarily targeting civilians, authorities said. Moscow's forces have hit civilian areas almost daily since its all-out invasion of its neighbor more than four years ago, with the regular assaults occasionally punctuated by massive attacks. More than 15,000 Ukrainian civilians have died in the strikes, the United Nations says.
The latest bombardment came in the wake of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's 48-hour trip this week to Germany, Norway and Italy in an urgent search for more air defense systems that can stop Russian missiles. Ukraine fears the Iran war is burning through stockpiles of the advanced American-made systems it needs, and has argued against a U.S. temporary waiver on Russian oil sanctions that Kyiv says is helping finance the Kremlin's war effort.
"Another night has proven that Russia does not deserve any easing of global policy or lifting of sanctions," Zelenskyy said on X.
He thanked Germany, Norway and Italy for new agreements this week on supporting Ukraine's air defense. Officials are also working with the Netherlands on additional supplies, he said.
At the same time, he noted that some partner countries haven't followed through on pledges of military support.
"I have instructed the Commander of the Air Force to contact those partners who earlier committed to providing missiles for Patriot and other systems," Zelenskyy said.
At least four people were killed in Kyiv, including a 12-year-old, with more than 50 others injured, according to authorities.
Tetiana Sokol, a 54-year-old resident of Kyiv, said two missiles hit near her home and she took cover with her dog in the hallway as flashes lit up the night and windows shattered from the blast wave.
"On the third attack everything broke, everything flew, we were shocked, we didn't know where to run. I grabbed whatever came to hand and ran away with the dog," she told The Associated Press. "I still can't find the cats in the house, they climbed out somewhere, I don't even know. No windows, nothing, the dog is still walking around in stress."
Nine people were killed and 23 injured in the southern port city of Odesa, three were killed and around three dozen injured in the central Dnipro region, and one person was killed in Zaporizhzhia in the south.
"Such attacks cannot be normalized. These are war crimes that must be stopped and their perpetrators held to account," Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said on X.
