kyiv has risen on the morning of this Tuesday with the smell of burned in the air already so familiar to its citizens. Six districts of the Ukrainian capital have suffered multiple explosions of drones and missiles in another Russian large -scale bombing. The attack has caused at least 10 dead and more than a hundred injured. , which has received a dozen impacts, almost all concentrated in two apples.
The image of the day is that of a nine -storey housing block that a Russian missile has completely sectioned. Interior Minister, Igor Klimeko, has assured that the weapons used was a ballistic missile, but the trajectory observed by neighbors consulted by the country and the data of the air forces would indicate that it may be a cruise missile.
A dozen people have died in the place, although emergency services are still looking for other possible victims under debris. At first it has been informed that the number of deaths are 14, but the mayor of kyiv, Vitali Klitschko, has specified early in the afternoon that the figure is at the moment 10. The police have indicated that the confusion is due to the fact that their rescue teams have confused remains of neighbors who had already identified with other possible victims.
The rocket directly hit the building, although the signs collected by the country in the place of the events suggest that the missile was actually aimed at an industrial zone on the other side of the avenue where the construction is located, about 150 meters.
In front of the destroyed housing building there is an apple with several factories that received at least five direct impacts, both drones and missiles, according to this newspaper. In this industrial zone, manufacturers of multiple types of products are registered, from food to electrical generators. It is unusual for such a determined location to receive so many long -range impacts. The Air Forces have reported that only six missiles exceeded anti -aircraft defenses, indicating that the main objective of this morning was this concrete industrial area.
It is common that in Russian bombings such as this morning if there are military or strategic objectives in the attacked area. It has not been so in these factories in Solomianski, where journalists have been able to work with freedom of movements.
The attack with such armament in this neighborhood of Solomianski has affected dozens of buildings and has left many injuries that hours later were still treated in hospitals or, the slightest, at street level. In Odesa, in southern Ukraine, two people have died and 17 have been injured.
The last attack with a similar number of fatalities. The greatest number of deaths in a Russian bombing in the capital happened in July 2024: 33 people died and 121 were injured.
New Racimo ammunition
Klitschko has spread a video on his social networks showing that at least one of the missiles used by the invader carried a new bunance of cluster, metal spheres of the size of a fist. “Russia tries to kill to the maximum number of people if you use this type of ammunition,” said the mayor.
Thousands of people have spent the night in candle in kyiv, like the bathroom or the halls between master walls. The explosions have been repeated for hours in almost every neighborhoods of the city, especially for the demolition of the Shahed drones. Citizens like Marina, a mother of a nine -year -old girl, who has only been able to sleep four hours. His home is just one kilometer from the main objective in Solomianski. “We have spent a lot of fear, situations like that are frequent, but this time I believed we were going to lose everything.”
Marina approached the main area of the impacts to visit some friends from her daughter’s school. Next to her wandered a woman with clear symptoms of suffering a brain shock, with bruises on her face and a bandage.
It is another day of an intense long -range large -scale bombardment campaign that Russia has been carrying out since May against multiple provinces of Ukraine, but especially against the capital. He mode of operation It is usually the same: they are what is called militarily as combined attacks in which hundreds of bomb drones that saturate the radars and antiareal defenses are first launched; Then cruise missiles and balistic missiles arrive fired hundreds of kilometers from the air or from the ground. Both Shahed and rockets constantly change their trajectory to make their interception more difficult.
“These attacks are pure terrorism,” said President Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski on his social networks. “The entire world, the United States and Europe must react once as civilized societies react to terrorism,” Zelenski added from Canada, where he is participating in the G-7 summit. The Ukrainian president, above all, his diplomatic pressure, to apply new sanctions on Russia and approve new armament deliveries for Ukraine, especially anti -aircraft systems. Trump has made it clear that he is not for the work.
Zelenski has insisted in the last days that it was necessary for him and Trump to meet bilaterally during the G-7 summit. The appointment will not finally occur because the US president has returned earlier than expected to Washington, claiming that he must focus on negotiating peace between Israel and Iran. “Putin acts in this way just because it can be allowed to continue this war. He wants to continue it,” Zelenski lamented, “it is negative when the powerful of the world turns a blind eye to this.” in which they have expressed their good harmony.
