Residents of Kyiv sought shelter in underground metro stations early Tuesday as Russian missile and drone attacks struck the Ukrainian capital. Video showed families gathered on subway platforms, some resting with blankets and bags as air raid alerts sounded across the city.
Multiple explosions were heard in Kyiv overnight, according to local officials. Authorities said Russia used ballistic missiles in the attack, while air defence systems were activated across the capital. Fires broke out in several districts and power outages were reported in parts of the city.
