Russia launches deadly attacks on Kyiv on eve of Nato summit
At least nine killed in the Ukraine capital in the second major assault on the city and its surrounds in less than a week
Russian missiles and drones struck Kyiv early on Monday, killing at least nine people and heavily damaging apartment blocks and other buildings, officials said, just a few days after the deadliest assault on the Ukrainian capital this year.
“Nine deaths and 46 wounded have now been confirmed as a result of the Russian attack (including five wounded children),” Tymur Tkachenko, head of the Kyiv region’s military administration, said. “Sadly, this is not the final toll. Rescue operations are still ongoing.”
