India, July 3 -- Russia-Ukraine War Latest News: The European Union has announced fresh sanctions against Russia after what officials described as a "night of horror" in Kyiv, following one of the largest Russian missile and drone attacks on the Ukrainian capital in recent months.

Russia has suffered as many as 450,000 deaths and 1.4 million total casualties since launching its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to a new analysis.

Once Russian soldiers reach certain parts of the front lines of the war in Ukraine, they can expect to live an average of just 20 to 35 minutes, according to a grim estimate by Russian military bloggers.

Ukraine launched two long-range military strikes against Russia on Wednesday, hitting another oil refinery and a military facility, continuing the trend of its recent military success with such weapons.

Moscow can still inflict serious damage, but its forces are suffering higher casualties than their Ukrainian counterparts, analysts say.

Ukraine argued in a letter to the International Maritime Organization that Russia's shadow fleet may no longer qualify as ordinary civilian shipping, citing its role in financing Moscow's war effort.

Launched in hundreds within just a few hours, attack drones play a key role in Russia’s aerial campaign against Ukraine. Moscow is now increasingly using jet-powered drones, which are much harder to intercept.
