According to this source through Telegram, 20 of the intercepted missiles, of the “Cruise” type, were directed towards kyiv, while another four Kh-59 guided rockets did not reach their target.

The mayor of the Ukrainian capital, Vitali Klitschko, had reported at least one fatality in the morning as a result of the impact of a Russian missile against a non-residential building in the Holosiiv district.

The mayor also reported other explosions in the Dnipro district of the city, assuring that emergency services are already working at the scene.

Missile alert sirens sounded Thursday morning in all regions of Ukraine, before the Russian attacks took place.
