Injury toll in Russian attack on Kyiv rises to seven, two killed

Russian forces launched a combined missile and drone attack on Kyiv early Tuesday, killing two people and injuring seven.

According to Ukrinform, the Kyiv City Military Administration reported this.

“As of 6:30, seven people had been injured and two people had been killed as a result of the Russian attack,” the post reads.

The State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) reported that Russia’s combined attack on Kyiv overnight on September 8 caused damage and fires in at least five districts of the capital.

In the Holosiivskyi district, a strike on a 26-story non-residential building caused structural damage on the 23rd floor, but no subsequent fire broke out.
