Amid the wreckage of war in Ukraine, one pattern stands out: schools, struck again and again, in what Ukraine says is a systematic targeting of the country's children. Using satellite images, maps, photos and Ukrainian data, a Scripps News visual investigation found that since February 2022, nearly 4,000 of Ukraine's 13,000 educational institutions have been damaged by Russian bombs and shells. The Ministry of Education says nearly 400 have been completely destroyed.

All seemed well when I strung up my laundry Sunday night. Sunset over Kyiv. Cathedral in view. A gentle breeze. I figured by morning I’d have air-kissed, war-zone-crisp shirts. Does the hotel offer laundry? Sure. For something like $8 a shirt. Such ripoffery. I’m not buying in. When you cover conflicts, you pack your own clothespins and pray the receipts make sense to HQ. They dried, yes… but also absorbed the metallic tang of something explosive.

According to Ukrainian officials, drones and missiles struck the capital, as well as the southern port city of Odesa, leaving devastation in their wake. Three people were killed and at least 13 others injured.

In a significant escalation of conflict, Ukraine has experienced the largest Russian drone attack since the onset of the war, with nearly 500 drones launched in a single night. The intense assault coincides with Russia amplifying its summer offensive while peace talks show little promise of progress. Kyiv remains tense as air raid alerts echoed throughout the city for over 10 hours, a duration that is considered highly unusual.
