    Russia bombarded Ukraine’s capital with one of the largest ballistic missile assaults of the war before dawn on Sunday, Ukrainian officials said, the third major attack on the capital, Kyiv, in the past 35 days.

    As smoke still hung over the city and rescue teams raced to strike locations, city officials said one person had been killed and more than 15 had been injured.

    The attack was part of a broader barrage across Ukraine that included at least 41 missiles and 125 drones of various types, the Ukrainian Air Force said in a statement.

    The sustained campaign aimed at Kyiv has coincided with Ukraine’s own increasingly successful targeting of Russian oil and gas facilities — which has prompted fuel shortages across the country — to take the war closer to Russia. Over the weekend, Ukraine expanded that campaign, striking two warehouses belonging to Russia’s largest online retailer, Wildberries.

    “A terrible night, terrible events for our company and for our country,” said the Wildberries chief executive, Tatiana Kim, in a statement. “It is a pain that cannot be put into words.”

    Russian authorities said at least eight people were killed and 62 injured in the strikes.

    President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said that the warehouses functioned as “major logistics facilities” that had been used to “supply sanctioned components for drone production and navigation equipment.”
