KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — A nighttime Russian missile and drone bombardment of Ukraine killed 15 people and injured 131 others while they slept in their homes, local officials said Tuesday, with the main barrage centering on Kyiv.
At least 14 people were killed as explosions echoed across the Ukrainian capital for almost nine hours during the night, Kyiv City Military Administration head Tymur Tkachenko said. The bombardment demolished a nine-story residential building, destroying dozens of apartments.
