War in Ukraine: Why Russia bombed Lviv – Zelensky under pressure as he overhauls his government

The mass bombing of Lviv by Russia is seen as both an escalation and an attempt at intimidation, as Russia seeks to regain the initiative after Ukraine’s offensive actions in Kursk.

The bombing of the Ukrainian city during the night targeted civilian facilities, schools, historical buildings, and hospitals, resulting in seven deaths and dozens of injuries.
