KYIV, June 2 (Reuters) - Russian drones and missiles pounded the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and other cities early on Tuesday, killing at least 11 people and wounding more than 100, authorities said, following days of warnings about Moscow's plans for a major assault.

Russian missile, drone strikes kill at least 13 people across Ukraine, authorities say, after President Zelenskyy warned Moscow was planning a "massive new strike."

A low-level run followed by a steep climb hints at a ground-attack mission as part of the Mirage’s expanding combat repertoire.

Russian forces launched a massive aerial attack on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, and officials say at least 22 civilians were killed and 138 were wounded.

Moscow has intensified aerial bombing of Ukrainian cities as its battlefield advances have stalled.

Russia warned ‌that the "systemic strikes" are in response to a drone attack on a Luhansk dormitory, which Ukraine denies.

Russia is intensifying attacks in Ukraine but more than four years of war are causing concern even among Putin loyalists.

A massive overnight drone barrage against Moscow underscores Kyiv's growing ability to strike deep inside Russia.

Rescue workers ended search operations Friday at the devastated building, which was struck this week during Russia’s heaviest air attack on the Ukrainian capital this year.
