The capital of Ukraine, kyiv, was once again the target of a missile attack attributed to Russian forces this Monday, according to local authorities, leaving at least one injured person hospitalized.
The alerts were activated first thing in the morning. The mayor, Vitali Klitschko, has called on the population to take refuge from the launch of Russian projectiles and the response of the Ukrainian air defense systems.
Fragments of a missile have fallen on a three-story building in the Pechersk area. Klitscho has confirmed on his Telegram account that two people have been treated in this area, although only one has had to be hospitalized.
The American ambassador, Bridget A. Brink, has also reported on her social networks “strong explosions” in the Ukrainian capital and has described the projectiles used by Russia as “hypersonic missiles.” “Over the last five days, Russia has launched hundreds of missiles and drones at a sovereign country. Ukraine needs help now. There is no moment to lose,” she added.
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, has insisted in recent days to his Western allies on the need to continue providing new weapons, with emphasis on long-range missiles and also on air defense systems to respond to bombings like the one this Monday. .
