Kyiv Blast Kills 1, Injures 10 As Russia Attacks Ukraine's Capital
"At least one person was killed and 10 were injured in Kyiv overnight after a wave of Russian ballistic missiles triggered powerful explosions and fires across the Ukrainian capital, city military authorities said on October 25. A kindergarten in the Dniprovskiy district was damaged and large blazes broke out in nonresidential areas of the Desnianskiy and Darnytskiy districts."
"Ukraine's air force said Russia carried out a large overnight mixed strike across the country, launching nine Iskander-M ballistic missiles from the Rostov and Kursk regions and 62 attack drones from several directions, including Kursk and Oryol in Russia and Hvardiiske in occupied Crimea. The military said that air defenses downed four missiles and 50 drones while confirming impacts across 11 locations as morning assessments continued."
"The overnight escalation also intersected with a new diplomatic signal from Moscow. Kirill Dmitriev, President Vladimir Putin's special envoy for investment and economic cooperation, said he believes the United States, Ukraine, and Russia are "quite close" to a diplomatic solution. Dmitriev is in the United States and US media reports suggest he will speak with President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff in Miami on October 25."
