It was not clear whether Sudokov's family were hurt in the attack. "This is what my house looks like after tonight. Arrival of the shaheed [sic]. The wife, child and mother were at home at the time," Sudakov said in the accompanying post. A wave of 805 drones and 13 missiles were sent by Russia overnight, according to Ukraine's air force.
At a five-storey residential apartment block in the eastern Darnytskyi block of the city, residents said they had heard Russian bombing in the distance. It was a familiar sound, and many had gathered away from the windows in central corridors that extended along the block only for disaster to strike. We didn't understand what had happened, says Oleksandr Yastremskyi, who had taken refuge in a corridor with his wife, Tetiana, and their son Denys. It's like something had landed into our house.
"These brutal attacks also damaged civilian infrastructure, including the EU Delegation in Kyiv," said Mr Harris. "This morning, I have directed my officials to summon the Russian representative at their Embassy here so they can be left in no doubt as regards our outrage at what happened in Kyiv last night. "Russia must immediately halt its criminal attacks and agree to a full and unconditional ceasefire."
For Anastasiia, war is an everyday part of life. The 17-year-old lives in Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, where captured Russian tanks line the city's historic St. Michael's square, a daily minute of silence pays tribute to the war dead, and sirens pierce the air when a Russian missile attack is imminent. "The war has influenced us a lot. It changes our pace of life, the conditions in which we work," Anastasiia explains about the conflict now stretching into its third year.
Kyiv was the main target, with at least 23 people injured and damage reported across several residential areas. Fires and destruction were confirmed in five of the capital's ten districts, and railway infrastructure was also hit.
