A series of explosions rocked Kyiv on Saturday morning and minutes later air raid sirens started to wail as an apparent missile attack on the Ukrainian capital was underway.
In the city of Siversk in Ukraine's Donetsk region, residents live in the bitterly cold basements of damaged buildings to hide from daily shelling. —
An unidentified infrastructure object was hit in the city and emergency services were operating at the site of the strike, Kyiv's city military administration said. It wasn't immediately clear whether several facilities in Kyiv were targeted or just the one that was reported hit. The Ukrainian capital hasn’t been attacked with missiles since New Year’s night, Jan. 1.
A total of 18 private houses were damaged in the region, according to regional Gov. Oleksii Kuleba."There are damaged roofs and windows," but no casualties, Kuleba said in a Telegram post. He added that a fire has been contained at a"critical infrastructure facility" in the region.
