The death toll from the Russian attack that hit Kiev on the night between 24 and 25 November has risen to four. The deaths were recorded in the Svyatoshynskyi neighborhood, where there were also at least three injured according to a first update from the city authorities.
The raid was conducted with a combined air attack: cruise and ballistic missiles together with attack drones affected several areas of the Ukrainian capital. The air defenses went into operation as explosions and fires followed one another in the city.
In the central district of Pechersk a 22-storey residential building was hit with damage between the fourth and eighth floors. In the Dniprovskyi district, east of the city, a nine-storey building was hit: the flames that developed between the fifth and eighth floors were put out by rescuers, who are continuing their safety operations and the search for any other victims under the rubble.
The attack is part of yet another wave of bombings on the capital and other areas of the country, also targeting civilians and residential buildings. Local authorities continue to monitor the situation and provide updates on the number of injured and damage caused by the raids.
