For six consecutive days, Russian forces have subjected Kyiv to sustained aerial bombardment, with the latest assault lasting more than twelve hours and claiming at least a dozen lives. The persistence of the campaign — unbroken, methodical, day after day — speaks to something beyond tactical opportunism; it reflects a deliberate strategic choice to press relentless pressure upon a city of millions. In the long arc of this conflict, these six days mark a darkening threshold, one that raises urgent questions about what comes next for the Ukrainian capital and the people who call it home.
