Russian air attacks on Kyiv and the surrounding region have killed four people and injured more than a dozen others, Ukrainian officials said, marking the sixth consecutive day of strikes on the area.
Explosions were heard across Kyiv early on Tuesday, according to eyewitness accounts. City authorities said three people were killed and five others injured, while a fire broke out in a non-residential area.
In the Kyiv region, Governor Tymur Tkachenko said one person was killed and nine others, including a child, were injured after missiles and drones damaged an apartment building and a business facility in Boryspil.
The latest strikes disrupted daily life for millions of residents, with air raid alerts issued across much of Ukraine.
The attacks came as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he held a “detailed and constructive” call with U.S. President Donald Trump’s envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner on efforts to advance peace talks.
Zelenskyy said discussions were ongoing over dates for a planned visit by the U.S. representatives to Ukraine.
