Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, endured a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack early Saturday, causing explosions and machine gun fire. Residents sought shelter in subway stations. Six people needed medical attention, and two fires broke out. This attack followed a major prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine, involving hundreds of soldiers and civilians, the largest swap of the war. Despite this exchange, fighting continues along the frontline, with both sides continuing deep strikes and remaining far apart on peace conditions.
