Russian forces struck Kyiv and the surrounding Kyiv region overnight with drones and various types of missiles, killing at least three people and injuring seven, according to Kyiv's city administration as reported by Meduza.
An earlier update from the city administration, cited in the same report, had put the toll from the night's attack at two people killed and four injured, suggesting the figures were still being revised as authorities assessed the damage.
The report did not specify which parts of Kyiv or the wider region were hit, or provide further detail on the extent of damage to infrastructure or property.
Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities have faced repeated Russian drone and missile attacks since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, with Ukrainian officials regularly reporting updated casualty figures as emergency responses continue.
