The strikes knocked out power in several areas and damaged three electrical plants, Ukrainian officials said. The strikes included six of the new hypersonic missiles known as Kinzhals, or Daggers. That is the most Russia has used in a single wave since the war began a year ago, according to Ukraine’s Air Force. Overall, Russia fired nine types of cruise and ballistic missiles alongside a volley of eight Iranian-made exploding drones. Of the 81 missiles fired overnight and through the morning, 47 hit targets, Ukraine said. That is a far higher ratio of strikes to missiles fired than Russia has achieved in barrages over recent months. Kyiv: In the capital, two large explosions an hour apart injured at least two residents and sent black smoke billowing from the city’s center, rattled windows and engulfed cars in flames. At least one hypersonic missile appeared to have struck the capital, an official said.

Little was immediately known about the assailant or assailants. A police spokesman indicated that an attacker had not been found and might be among the dead. The police, including tactical and bomb disposal units, were on the scene in the neighborhood of Gross Borstel late Thursday, and the injured were rushed to local hospitals. There had been an event at the hall at the time of the shooting, and in local news footage, many abandoned winter jackets could be seen hanging in the foyer of the three-story building. The police are still investigating a motive and whether the attacker was specifically targeting Jehovah’s Witnesses, a small religious community in Germany, where there are about 175,000 adherents across the country.

But dramatic increases in “hypertension, diabetes and other noncommunicable diseases and the lack of health services targeting these diseases” has offset those gains, according to the agency. It warned that the rise in life expectancy could be erased before the next decade is out. Routine screening for conditions such as high blood pressure is rare, diagnosis rates are low, and care is often not widely available. The public is not aware of the ailments — everyone can recognize malaria, but few connect blurry vision or exhaustion with hypertension — and primary care health workers often don’t know what to check for, either. Details: In Kenya, noncommunicable diseases account for half of hospital bed occupancy and more than a third of deaths. The rates are similar across the rest of sub-Saharan Africa, and people in this region are being affected at younger ages than those in other parts of the world.
