Kyiv faced one of the most intense and destructive nights of attacks since the war began, as Russian forces launched a sustained missile and drone assault that lasted more than seven hours into early Friday morning.
Ukrainian officials have described it as one of the largest coordinated strikes to date.
The Ukrainian capital was rocked by near-constant explosions, with fires breaking out across the city and surrounding areas.
Sirens sounded throughout the night, and by dawn, authorities reported at least ten people injured amid widespread damage.
According to Ukraine’s military, the Russian assault involved 14 Iskander-M ballistic missiles — each worth an estimated £2 million.
