  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.

  • A Russian missile has hit an American electronics factory in Ukraine,

  • causing extensive damage and injuries.

  • This is according to Ukrainian officials.

  • NPR's Greg Myrie reports the attack came as Russia carried out one of its largest airstrikes of the war.

  • President Volodymyr Zelensky and other officials took to social media to report the airstrike on the U.S. factory.

  • He said a Russian cruise missile slammed into the plant and more than a dozen people were wounded.

  • He did not name the company.

  • Videos show thick black smoke rising from a large industrial plant in the far west of Ukraine near the border with Hungary.

  • Russia attacks western Ukraine less frequently than other areas.

  • 770 drones and 40 missiles.

  • This comes just days after President Trump met separately with Zelensky and Russia's Vladimir Putin in a bid to end the war.

  • Greg Myrie, NPR News.

  • The Texas Statehouse has passed a plan to redraw the state's congressional districts.

  • The GOP plan aims to send up to five more Republicans to the U.S.

  • House in next year's midterm elections.

  • This could help the GOP increase its control over Congress.

  • Texas House Democrats, led by Representative Gene Wu,

  • fled the state for two weeks to try to block the plan, but many returned.

  • Wu says the redistricting plan is something that will affect all Americans.
