Kyiv, 12 February – Ukraine’s capital has once again been hit by Russian missiles. The morning strike hit several districts of the city, causing destruction, fires and casualties.
The most tragic consequences occurred in Obolon district, where one person was killed and four others were injured, including a child. This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES).

We are holding on. We are winning.
