NATO fighter jets were scrambled overnight after Russia launched one of the biggest attacks on Ukraine.

Some 30 ballistic and cruise missiles and more than 700 drones were launched in one of the most intense bombing raids since the start of the war.

The Russians unleashed Tu-95MS and Tu-160 strategic bombers to target Lviv and Lutsk as well as Chernivtsi in the assault on western Ukraine.

In Chernivtsi, near the Romanian border, two people have been confirmed dead, and at least 18 have been injured from the overnight attacks that once more targeted civilian areas.

The Operational Command of the Polish Armed Forces said it scrambled fighter jets due to the intensity of the attack.

“Following the long-range Russian airstrikes on targets in western Ukraine, including several regions, Polish and allied air forces have initiated operations within Polish airspace,” the statement mentioned.

“Fighter jets were swiftly deployed, and ground-based air defense systems along with radar reconnaissance units are now on heightened alert,” the statement continued.
