Russian forces launched a massive ballistic missile strike on Kyiv, resulting in 9 deaths and 23 injuries, including four children. This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. Destruction and fires were recorded in five districts of the capital. In the Darnytskyi district, which saw the highest number of casualties, 7 people were killed and 14 injured, including two children; residential buildings were damaged and cars burned. In the Solomianskyi district, 2 people were killed and 8 injured, with a five-story building partially destroyed; rescuers evacuated 35 residents. In the Shevchenkivskyi district, a fire broke out in a non-residential building, and ambulances caught fire. All fires have been extinguished, and information is being updated. The attack is a continuation of a series of Russian strikes on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine, using high-speed missiles with minimal flight time, which complicates air defense operations and increases risks to the population.
