KYIV (Reuters) – Russia launched an overnight air strike on Kyiv, with the city’s air defence forces trying to repel the attack, the military administration and the mayor of the Ukrainian capital said on Sunday.
“Explosions in the capital. Air defences are working. Stay in shelters!” Mayor Vitali Klitschko said in a post on the Telegram messaging app.
Reuters’ witnesses heard blasts in what sounded like air defence units in operation.
