KYIV \u2014 Russia pounded Kyiv and the region in a heavy ballistic missile attack early on Saturday, killing 10 people, as President Volodymyr \u200bZelensky warned that Ukraine had run out of interceptor missiles for its U.S. Patriot air defence systems.Zelensky said that Russia launched 35 missiles at Ukraine, including 27 ballistic missiles, and also 185 drones.
