Russia launched a massive drone and missile attack on Ukraine’s Kiev region early Monday, killing at least 10 people and injuring 61, said Ukrainian officials.
Tymur Tkachenko, head of the Kiev City Military Administration, said on Telegram that nine people were killed and 46 injured in the capital, where the strikes caused widespread damage.
“Unfortunately, this is not final information. Rescue efforts are still ongoing,” he said.
Kiev regional Gov. Mykola Kalashnyk said one person was killed and 15 others injured in communities surrounding the capital.
“Russia is once again purposefully striking civilians and civilian infrastructure,” Kalashnyk wrote on Telegram.
Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko said that in Darnytskyi district, debris struck a 25-story apartment building, trapping residents on the upper floors. Rescuers evacuated 22 people.
