Russian drone, missile attack on Kyiv hits residential buildings, injures 16

Дата публикации: 02-07-2026 03:14:05

KYIV: Russian forces attacked the Ukrainian capital Kyiv overnight killing at least two people and injuring more than a dozen, as drones and missiles struck residential buildings and started a fire in a hotel ​on a central boulevard.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy had earlier warned of a possible overnight attack and ​said he was cutting short his visit to Dublin for the start of ⁠Ireland’s six-month term in the rotating presidency of the EU.
Tymur Tkachenko, head of the capital’s military ​administration, said two people had been killed and 16 injured. He did not elaborate.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, ​writing on Telegram, said the first to sixth floors of an apartment building collapsed after a direct hit.
In an earlier post, he said the injured included paramedics and drivers at an ambulance station, and that some people were still ​trapped inside damaged residential buildings.
Pictures posted online showed a fire burning out of control at the ​top of a building on the central Shevchenko Boulevard. Multiple explosions were heard in Kyiv, a Reuters witness said.
Carrying ‌children, belongings, ⁠tents and pets, people crowded into underground stations, as air raid alerts were issued for most of Ukraine’s territory on Thursday in Russia’s worst attack on the country since mid-June.
Neighbouring Poland, a NATO and European Union member, scrambled fighter jets on Thursday as a preventive measure.
Exchanging attacks
Zelenskiy has proposed talks with Russian President ​Vladimir Putin to end ​the more than four-year-old ⁠war that the Kremlin leader has rejected.
Ukraine has recently intensified strikes deeper into the Russian territory, triggering a widespread fuel crisis in the world’s third-biggest ​oil producer and forcing it to import gasoline from as far away as ​India.
Russia’s northwestern Leningrad ⁠region, Putin’s home and where large export and oil refining facilities are located, brought down six drones on Thursday, Governor Alexander Drozdenko said on Telegram.
In the Belgorod region bordering Ukraine, a man was killed and ⁠his wife ​injured after a drone hit their home, local authorities said ​separately on Telegram.
Reuters could not independently verify details of the casualties. Russia and Ukraine say they do not deliberately target civilians.
