Overnight Russian missile and drone attacks in and around Kyiv led to at least seven fatalities, including five in the Shevchenkivskyi district, which sustained significant destruction. Ukraine's government labeled the strikes as 'massive,' causing widespread injuries and fires within residential areas. Visual evidence from the State Emergency Service depicted rescue operations amidst the chaos, while local officials confirmed damage across six districts of the city. These events occurred shortly after Ukraine's military leadership pledged an escalation in retaliatory strikes against Russia.
At least seven people were killed in overnight Russian attacks in and around the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday.
Visuals posted by Ukraine's State Emergency Service showed rescue workers taking people to safety from several structures as fires burned.
Five people were killed in Kyiv's bustling district of Shevchenkivskyi where the entire entrance of a high-rise residential building was destroyed, according to Ukraine's Interior Minister.
The strikes come a day after Ukraine's commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrsky, vowed to step up strikes on Russia.
