At least four people have been injured after Russia attacked Kyiv in a mass drone and missile attack in the early hours today, officials said.
The overnight strikes followed on from one of Vladimir Putin’s worst daytime aerial assaults on Ukraine since the war began, involving more than 800 drones as well as missiles.
Russia was attacking the Ukrainian capital with ballistic missiles and drones, the head of Kyiv's military administration Tymur Tkachenko said, adding that damage was recorded across six districts.
People are reportedly buried under the rubble in Darnytsia district where a residential building partially collapsed, officials said.
Yesterday, Zelensky said Russia was trying to "overload [our] air defences". "Our soldiers are defending Ukraine," he added.
Vladimir Putin said in a speech last weekend that his invasion of Ukraine was “coming to an end.”
US president Donald Trump also echoed him on Tuesday and said he believes Moscow and Kyiv will soon reach a deal to end fighting.
