air raid

Hamas has long argued that all four were killed by Israeli air raids on Gaza, something which has not been verified.

Even as air raid sirens continue to sound across Ukraine, that's exactly the image Moscow wants to project.

Moscow also launched dozens of drones across Ukraine overnight, with multiple air raid alerts in and around Kyiv.

Ukrainians across the country woke to sound of air raid alarms, and were told to shelter as the attacks unfolded in the morning.

Arab civilians were also reported to have perished in this turmoil, many from shelling by army tanks, or in blistering air raids.
