In the hours before dawn on Wednesday, Russian ballistic missiles fell across Kyiv, killing at least one person and leaving destruction scattered across more than seven locations throughout the capital. The strikes reached residential towers, warehouses, and civilian infrastructure alike — a pattern that has become grimly familiar in this long conflict. It is a reminder that in modern warfare, the city itself becomes a target, and ordinary life the casualty.
