Several injured as Russia targets Kyiv in missile attack, mayor says

Russia launched a missile attack on Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, early on Thursday, injuring at least 10 people and damaging residential buildings and industrial facilities, city officials said, although air defences downed all the missiles, SİA informs, referring to Yahoo News.

The first large attack in recent weeks targeted the city with both ballistic and cruise missiles, said Serhiy Popko, the head of its military administration.

“After a pause of 44 days, the enemy launched another missile attack on Kyiv,” he said. “All emergency services are working on sites. Clearing the consequences of the missile attack is underway.”

Mayor Vitali Klitschko said at least 10 people were injured across the city. An 11-year-old girl was among the two people taken to the hospital, city officials said.

Ukraine’s air defences shot down all 31 Russian missiles targeting the capital, the air force commander said. Air alerts lasted for nearly three hours.
