[1/5] A view shows a building damaged during a Russian missile strike, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Lviv, Ukraine August 15, 2023. The Volyn region borders NATO-member Poland to its west. Ukraine's Air Force said that its forces had destroyed 16 of at least 28 Russia-launched air and sea-based missiles. Until July, the Lviv region which is far from the front lines and which borders Poland to its west, had been spared most Russia's air attacks. Air raid alerts were issued for entire Ukraine for about two hours, staring at around 2 a.m. (2300 GMT).
