Ukraine War: At Least One Killed in Overnight Strikes on Kyiv
Around a dozen explosions rocked the Ukrainian capital shortly after Russia's top diplomat ruled out any ceasefire.
At least one person has been killed in a series of overnight strikes on Kyiv, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP). A dozen powerful explosions rang out in the Ukrainian capital in the early hours of Thursday, during a missile alert.
The strikes came hours after Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Moscow would "not truce" its war in Ukraine.
The extent of the damage and the precise toll of the strikes were not immediately detailed. The situation continues to evolve in Kyiv, where residents have had to take refuge during the missile alert triggered by this new wave of attacks.
These events come in the context of the continuation of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, with no immediate prospect of a ceasefire, according to the head of Russian diplomacy.
