Thirty five people in the Ukrainian capital were injured, including a pregnant woman, according to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko. A residential building was among the sites struck in the city, though Russia’s Defense Ministry, as usual, claimed to have hit a military target.
At least six regions across the country were targeted in the latest round of attacks. “My condolences to all those who have lost loved ones.
