Death toll from Russian attack on Kyiv tops 28
Rescuers in Kyiv were on Wednesday sifting through the rubble and pulling bodies from destroyed apartment blocks after a major Russian attack on the Ukrainian capital a day earlier. The city's mayor and emergency services said the missile and drone strikes had killed at least 28 people in one of the most deadly attacks on Kyiv since Russia invaded more than three years ago. More than 130 people were also wounded. AFP journalists saw rescue workers in helmets carrying victims in body bags out of the blown-out main door of a residential building. Construction machinery was being used to scoop up the rubble. "Currently, 28 Kyiv residents are confirmed dead. Rescue workers are still working at the sites of destruction," Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said on social media. The state emergency services gave the same toll, saying 23 of those killed were in a single nine-storey building.
