Kiev seeks more air defenses after deadly Russian strikes
Russian missile and drone strikes on Kiev killed at least nine people and wounded 28 others, including four children, early on Aug. 1, Ukrainian officials said.
The attacks hit five districts of the capital, damaging residential and commercial buildings, setting vehicles ablaze and causing several fires, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said.
Seven people were killed and 14 wounded in the Darnytskyi district. Two others were killed and eight wounded in Solomianskyi, where a five-story residential building partially collapsed and caught fire.
Emergency crews rescued 105 people from affected areas, while 17 of the wounded were taken to hospital.
