For Terrell Hills residents with family ties to Ukraine, the latest Russian missile and drone attack on Kyiv's residential areas is a stark reminder of the devastating human cost of war. The attack's impact on civilians, including those trapped under rubble, resonates deeply in a community that values its own safety and security.
