Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed four fatalities following an overnight Russian air attack on the Ukrainian capital, revising an earlier death toll of one. The strike, which targeted residential areas, has heightened tensions as Ukraine continues to defend against intensified aerial assaults.
Klitschko shared the update via Telegram, urging residents to remain vigilant amid ongoing air raid alerts. Emergency services are conducting search operations for potential survivors, while local authorities assess infrastructure damage.
Moscow has not yet commented on the incident. The attack comes amid escalating cross-border strikes ahead of Ukraine's anticipated counteroffensive operations.
