Russia has launched a fresh wave of drone and missile attacks on Kyiv, killing two people and injuring at least 13, according to Ukrainian officials. The assault comes just hours before Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is set to speak at the Ukraine Recovery Conference, taking place in Rome.

The timing of the strikes appears symbolic, as global leaders gather in the Italian capital to reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine’s reconstruction and long-term resilience. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni welcomed attendees earlier this morning, with leaders posing for a family photo before formal discussions began.

The two-day conference brings together governments, financial institutions, and international donors aiming to coordinate support for Ukraine’s economic recovery, infrastructure repair, and energy security amid ongoing Russian aggression. Organizers have framed the summit as a message of unity and resolve—underscoring that backing for Ukraine will not waver, regardless of battlefield developments.

Zelenskyy and Meloni are expected to speak shortly, with the Ukrainian president likely to reiterate the urgent need for military and humanitarian aid, as well as long-term investment in Ukraine’s postwar future.
