The attack was the latest in a series of large-scale Russian ballistic missile strikes that have become near-routine<\/span> this summer. Ukraine has a limited stockpile of interceptor missiles for the U.S.-made Patriot systems,<\/span> the sole air defense system in its arsenal able to shoot down ballistic missiles, making large volleys like Wednesday\u2019s hard to stop, even as Ukraine has stepped up deep strikes on Russian oil refineries and energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n

In the wider Kyiv region around the capital, 14 people were killed and 27 wounded, with fires at multiple locations in Brovary, Bucha and Fastiv districts, Ukraine\u2019s emergence service said.
