At least 27 people were killed after a Russian drone struck a depot in the town of Myla, on the western outskirts of Kyiv, Ukrainian authorities said Saturday. The strike sparked a huge fire and explosions. Ukrainian prosecutors said the depot appeared to have been storing "explosive objects." President Volodymyr Zelensky said ammunition was likely to blame, writing on X: "Those who allowed this to happen must be held accountable for their decisions... ammunition cannot be stored near homes or other residential areas." AFP reporters saw a huge column of black smoke over the capital's western suburbs as officials reported hundreds of casualties. Both Russia and Ukraine have intensified long-range strikes in recent months, causing civilian casualties to reach their highest level since Moscow's full-scale invasion in 2022.
