Russian strikes on Kyiv region kill at least three, Ukrainian officials say
Seven people were reported injured in overnight attacks. Poland briefly suspended flights at two airports as its military operated in the airspace.
At least three people, including a child, were killed and seven injured in overnight Russian strikes on Kyiv and surrounding regions, Ukrainian officials said. The casualty figures have not been independently verified in the supplied reports.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said fires damaged private homes, a store and a warehouse. The reports did not independently establish the extent of the damage.
Poland briefly suspended flights at Lublin and Rzeszow airports during military aviation activity linked to the attacks. Flights later resumed. Poland’s army said military aircraft were operating in its airspace and that it had readied air-defence systems and radar as a precaution.
Russia’s Defence Ministry said its strikes hit a communications centre in Kyiv, energy facilities in the surrounding region and port infrastructure in Izmail. The ministry also claimed all designated targets were struck; those target and damage claims were not independently established in the supplied material.
