Russia launched fresh missile strikes on Kyiv in the early hours today, triggering fires and injuring at least two people, officials said. It was the third round of attacks on the Ukrainian capital this week.
Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko said the strikes caused a fire in a storage area and a non-residential building in two areas on either side of the Dnipro river. The attacks left two people injured, one of whom required treatment in hospital, and prompted an air raid alert that lasted for about an hour.
