Kyiv was shaken overnight by a wave of deadly Russian airstrikes that left at least eight civilians dead, including a six-year-old boy, according to Ukrainian officials. Explosions from drones and missiles struck at least 27 locations across the capital, damaging infrastructure and causing widespread panic.

Among the wounded are 30 people, including nine children, who were rushed to hospitals. One of the hardest-hit areas saw a nine-storey apartment building partially collapse, trapping residents and sparking frantic rescue operations.

The attack marks another brutal night for Kyiv residents, with air raid sirens and blasts echoing for hours amid ongoing Russian aggression.
