Ukraine-Russia war latest: Zelensky vows response to Russia’s ‘terrorist attack’ as strike on mall kills 16

Nine people, including two children, are missing following Russia’s attack on a Ukrainian mall, according to local official

Ukraine intercepted about 90% of Russian cruise missiles in the overnight attack, but Zelensky said ballistic missiles remain far harder to stop and urged partners to provide more Patriot interceptors. He also pledged additional resources for Ukraine’s long-range strike capabilities.

Russia struck Kyiv with drones again on the evening of August 20 — after a massive combined attack the night before.
