Russia struck Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, in what the city's mayor says was the largest attack since the full-scale Russian invasion began. At least three people were killed.

This is NPR News in Washington. Russia attacked the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv overnight with high-precision long-range missiles and drones. Ukrainian officials say at least three people were killed and at least 21 others were wounded. The mayor says it was the most powerful attack against the city since Russia's full-scale invasion more than three years ago.

Russian authorities say air defenses downed more than 60 Ukrainian drones on approach to Moscow, forcing the temporary closure of two of the capital's main airports. The Ukrainian attacks followed Russia's deadly bombardment of Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, Saturday that also injured scores of people.
