Journalists in the Ukrainian capital reported that Kyiv was facing a combined attack involving drones and missiles.
The city has endured increasingly frequent Russian airstrikes, both during the day and at night, for several weeks.
On Monday, a woman was killed and six others were injured after a Russian drone attack sparked a fire at the Kyiv Academy of Sciences, according to a preliminary report issued by President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Last week, Zelensky once again urged Ukraine’s Western allies to increase military assistance, particularly by supplying additional US-made Patriot interceptors capable of targeting powerful ballistic missiles.
