'All-Out War': Russian Military Attacks Airports, Damages Hospitals and Apartment Buildings Amid Full-Scale Invasion of Ukraine

The Russian military has attacked airports and damaged hospitals and apartment buildings amid its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to videos shared online and reports from multiple outlets on Thursday.

Despite claiming that the Russian military would target only military installations in a so-called “special military operation” in Ukraine, it quickly became clear that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s intentions in the neighboring country matched an all-out war, in which widespread civilian casualties are possible.

Footage obtained by the New York Times appeared to show a mass of airstrikes hitting an airport in Hostomel, just outside the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv. Subsequent reporting from CNN indicated that Russian forces had seized control of the facility, though Ukraine’s military had apparently launched a counteroffensive.
