Russia fires 21 missiles at Kyiv after talk of peace negotiations
Russia launched 21 missiles at Kyiv following talk of peace and negotiations, with 12 Ukrainian regions attacked overall. According to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, two people were killed and 34 injured, including five children.
Russian forces fired 21 missiles at Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, after statements about peace negotiations, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, as reported by the news outlet Ukrainska Pravda. In the course of Russia's war against Ukraine, a total of 12 Ukrainian regions came under attack, not only the capital.
Casualties and damage
According to Zelensky, two people were killed across Ukraine and 34 were wounded. Five of the injured are children.
The strikes damaged residential buildings, a railway station, the metro and businesses. The source does not specify which buildings were hit or in which regions, nor what types of missiles were used.
Zelensky stressed that the attack came right after the talk of peace, pointing to a contradiction between Russia's statements about negotiations and its actions during the war.
