A new report from the United Nations accuses Russia of committing crimes against humanity by attacking civilians and civilian infrastructure with drones, as well as committing war crimes through the forcible transfer of people.

Russia has targeted Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, with drones, killing three people in their homes, according to authorities on Sunday.

Ukraine sent drones towards Moscow for the third consecutive night, disrupting air traffic around the Russian capital, Russian authorities said late on Tuesday.

NATO lacks cost-effective air defenses to take down cheap Russian drones. Baltic startups might have the answer.

Gun and drone street battles are taking place in the key city of Pokrovsk infiltrated by around 200 Russian soldiers, say Ukrainian defence chiefs. Ukraine is rushing to strengthen its positions in the strategic eastern city in the Donetsk province of the Donbas region.

Russia is trying "to inflict as much damage as possible on ordinary life," said Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelensky.
