Russia pounded Ukraine with over 700 drones and 13 missiles in its largest drone attack since the beginning of the war, Ukraine’s Air Force said on Wednesday.

At least one individual was killed in the district of Khmelnytskyi in the attack, which came soon after US President Donald Trump vowed to extend more military aid to Ukraine, while accusing Vladimir Putin of “throwing bullsh*t" over peace talks.

Kyiv officials said that at least 711 drones out of the incoming 728 were intercepted and that at least seven missiles were destroyed. Ukraine retaliated against the attack with 86 drones headed towards Russia.

The attack overtook the previous record of the largest number of projectiles launched by Russia, which dispatched 550 drones into Ukraine on July 4.

“This is a demonstrative attack, and it comes at a time when there have been so many attempts to achieve peace and ceasefire, but Russia rejects everything," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Telegram.

The Russian attack on the city of Lutsk in northwestern Ukraine was so strong that Poland had to send its military planes into the air, CNN reported.

“Almost everything was heading toward Lutsk," said Ivan Rudnitskyi, head of the military administration in the Volyn region, where Lutsk is located, on Telegram.

Russia launched a new attack on Ukraine just two days after President Trump criticised Putin for not being serious about making peace and promised stronger support for Ukraine.

“We get a lot of bullsh*t thrown at us by Putin, if you want to know the truth. He’s very nice all of the time, but it turns out to be meaningless," Trump said during a Cabinet meeting.

A day after the largest aerial attack, a large wave of Russian attacks on Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, killed two people and injured several others, the city’s military officials said early Thursday. Loud explosions were heard across the city throughout the night.

Officials warned residents about the risk of drone and ballistic missile strikes and urged everyone to “immediately go to the nearest shelters." Many people took cover in a central metro station, where they slept on mats, comforted their pets, or waited on camping chairs, according to a report by Agence France-Presse.

This latest assault came just one day after Russia launched its biggest missile and drone attack since the war began over three years ago.
