Ukraine launched a devastating missile strike on a town in Russia's Kursk region, just 43 miles from a major nuclear power station. The attack reportedly involved the use of HIMARS missiles, which caused extensive damage to civilian infrastructure in Rylsk.

Ukraine attacked a town in Russia's Kursk region Friday, killing six people, including a child, a senior local official said. Ten others were hospitalized in the town of Rylsk after the attack with U.S.-supplied HIMARS rockets, Kursk acting Governor Alexander Khinshtein said.

Russia unleashed a barrage of ballistic missiles on Kyiv early Friday, killing at least one person and injuring 12, city officials said.

Ukraine’s capital faced a Russian missile attack for the first time in almost a month, a day after Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin offered to hold talks with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump.
