Russian drone strike sparks fire at Kyiv office building, injures one

A fire broke out at an office building in Kyiv's Solomyanskyi District after a Russian drone crashed into the area, local authorities said. The blaze also caused damage to a nearby warehouse.

One person was injured in the incident, according to reports from the scene. Emergency services responded to contain the fire and assess the extent of the damage to both structures.

The attack is part of a continuing pattern of Russian drone and missile strikes on Ukrainian cities since the start of the full-scale invasion in 2022, which have repeatedly targeted infrastructure and residential areas far from the front lines.

Authorities in Kyiv have not yet released further details on the scale of the damage or the condition of the injured person. Ukrainian officials routinely report on air defense operations following such strikes, though specifics for this incident were not immediately available.
