One person was killed and four people were injured in a Russian missile attack on Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, overnight. Officials said a nine-year-old girl was among the injured in the strikes. The strikes caused damage in Kyiv’s Holosiivskyi, Podilskyi, Sviatoshynskyi, and Obolonskyi districts.

Meanwhile, officials in the city of Kryvyi Rih also reported damage to residential buildings and infrastructure after it, too, was targeted in Russian missile strikes last night. The Ukrainian military said it had shot down six of seven ballistic missiles and 71 drones launched by Russia, which sparked several fires throughout the city.
