A Russian attack on the Ukrainian capital Kiev and its surroundings killed at least 12 people. The attack involved Russian ballistic missiles and drones that targeted the city and surrounding areas.
Ukrainian authorities reacted to the attack calling for new sanctions against Russia and more air defense systems to protect the civilian population and critical infrastructure of the country.
This attack occurs in the context of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which has been ongoing for more than two years, with Kiev continuing to appeal for military and diplomatic support from Western countries.
