Ukrainian rescuers work in a damaged residential building following mass Russian drone and missile strikes on Ukraine's capital Kyiv on July 4, 2025, amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Kyiv said on July 4 that Russia had launched its largest overnight aerial attack on Ukraine over the more than three-year invasion. A representative of Ukraine's air force Yuriy Ignat said the barrage of 550 drones and missiles was a record, adding "this is the largest number that the enemy has used in a single attack."
