On Sunday night, Russian drones struck the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, hitting apartment blocks, a university, and a shopping mall, and wounding five people, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The attack came a day after Ukraine launched over 1,000 drones at Russia, including hundreds aimed at Moscow. Russia's Defense Ministry said it downed 244 Ukrainian drones, while Ukraine reported shooting down 148 Russian drones. The ongoing attacks underscore the lack of diplomatic progress in the conflict, now in its fourth year. World leaders are gathering at the UN General Assembly, where Zelenskyy expects to meet U.S. President Donald Trump. Moldova also reported a drone incursion, closing part of its airspace.
