“Kyiv Mayor, Vitali Klitschko said in a series of posts on Telegram that explosions were reported in the city’s eastern residential Dniprovskiy district and parts of a missile had crashed in an uninhabited part of the Holosiyivskiy district.

“Klitschko said no casualties had been reported and a fire at a non residential building in the Holosiyivskiy district had been extinguished.

“According to presidential office deputy head, Kyrylo Tymoshenko, the attack targeted “critical infrastructure.”

“Tymoshenko also wrote on Telegram that a residential building in the village of Kopyliv in the Kyiv region was struck, breaking windows of residential buildings.
