The Russian army carried out a large-scale drone and missile attack on several Ukrainian cities, including the capital Kyiv, overnight.
Axar.az reports that Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed the attacks.
“In the Darnytskyi district, a second strike hit the site where a drone had struck a residential building. One medical worker was killed and several others were injured. They had gone there to provide assistance,” Klitschko said.
According to him, a total of four people were killed and 10 residents were injured in the attacks.
In Kyiv’s Dnipro district, a drone struck a three-story residential building, sparking a fire. Twenty-nine people were evacuated from the building.
Meanwhile, Ukraine’s Air Force reported the approach of high-speed aerial targets toward the Kyiv region and warned of Kalibr cruise missiles launched from the Black Sea.
