Russia executed a new strike in Kyiv, occurring just days before the fourth anniversary of its extensive invasion of Ukraine. Journalists from the AFP news agency reported hearing a series of explosions that began around 4 a.m. local time, shortly after an air raid warning was issued. Tymur Tkachenko, the head of the Kyiv military administration, alerted the public via social media, asserting, "The enemy is attacking the capital with ballistic weapons," and advised residents to remain in shelters for their safety.
