Unverified social media claims allege Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was killed during a massive wave of Russian drone and missile airstrikes targeting multiple urban centers across Ukraine overnight.
Ukrainian officials confirmed widespread damage to civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, and power systems, but made no mention of any casualties among top government leadership during these attacks.
International observers and analysts immediately urged extreme caution regarding the unverified reports, noting that active conflict zones frequently generate dangerous volumes of disinformation and false rumors.
