At least 10 civilians have been injured in Kyiv following another massive Russian missile barrage on Jan. 2, said Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko.

At least 10 people are known to have been injured due to a fire in a building in Kyiv’s Solomianskyi district. Nine of the 10 have been hospitalized.

Russia carried out another massive attack on Ukraine on the evening of Jan. 1 and the night of Jan. 2: initially, 35 drones were launched (all were shot down, including over Kyiv), and in the early morning, strategic Tu-95MS bombers launched missile attacks. In total, 16 such aircraft were deployed in the sky.
