  "summary": "At least 17 people have been killed and dozens wounded in a Russian missile and drone attack on Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, and surrounding areas. The overnight strikes, which occurred on August 5, hit various targets including warehouses, a railway station, and civilian businesses, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.\n\nThe attacks, which involved 24 Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic missiles and four Zircon/Oniks anti-ship missiles, resulted in multiple fires and an ammonia leak at a non-residential site. Ukraine's air force reported that it was unable to intercept any of the incoming missiles.\n\nPresident Zelenskyy has denounced the attacks, stating that ballistic missile interceptors could have saved lives if they had been supplied in time. He called on partners to step up interceptor deliveries and impose new sanctions on Russian plants that manufacture ballistic missiles. According to Euronews, 42 people were wounded in the attacks. The New Voice of Ukraine reported 44 wounded. France 24 cited Ukrainian authorities as saying that Russia is deliberately hunting down civilians using small drones, with a specific incident reported in Kherson where a Russian drone hit a street vendor.",
