Russian strikes kill two in Kyiv after reported three-day pause
Missiles and drones hit the Ukrainian capital overnight after a temporary halt to attacks ended, according to France 24 International.
Russian missiles and drones struck Kyiv overnight, killing two people and sending smoke over the Ukrainian capital, according to France 24 International.
The attack followed a reported three-day pause in strikes on the city. The available material describes the halt as temporary and does not establish that it was a formal ceasefire or that it applied beyond Kyiv.
Ukrainian authorities also reported injuries, fires and damage to buildings, although the full extent of the damage remained unclear. The victims were not identified, and casualty figures may change as authorities assess the aftermath.
The strikes came after talks involving Russian, Ukrainian and US officials. The material does not establish a direct link between those discussions and the attack.
The renewed bombardment underscores the limits of temporary pauses in the conflict, with the immediate focus returning to casualties and damage in the capital.
