Russian missiles and drones hit residential areas and hospitals in Ukraine's capital, the interior minister says.

It was the latest in a series of deadly Russian strikes, which have intensified as cease-fire talks have largely stalled.

Attack on Kyiv kills five and wounds others as rescue efforts continue.

Russian forces attacked the capital and other targets in the eastern half of the country with hundreds of drones and ballistic missiles, killing 13 people and injuring dozens.
