Russia Bombs Ukrainian Military Base Near Kyiv; U.S. Estimates 75,000 Russian Casualties
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Russia's military has launched strikes on Ukraine's capital region for
the first time in weeks. A Ukrainian military official said six Russian
cruise missiles struck a military base north of Kyiv overnight.
Elsewhere, there were competing claims over whether Russia had seized a
massive coal-fired power plant in Ukraine's east.

Meanwhile, the Biden administration has revealed its estimate of the
number of casualties Russia's military has suffered since it invaded
Ukraine in February, saying 75,000 Russian troops have been killed or
injured in the violence.
