Fragments of the captured missiles burned or damaged many private houses, buildings and vehicles, especially on the east bank of the Dnieper River, which divides the city into two. More than fifty people were injured.
About second Russian attack with ballistic missiles against Kiev this week. From Sunday to early Monday, Russia launched a total of 8 ballistic missiles at the Ukrainian capital, all of which were shot down by Ukrainian air defenses.
Ballistic missiles are one of the most difficult to intercept missiles in the Russian arsenal. Ukraine has only the capacity to hit them in the capital, where it has deployed Patriot air defense systems. almost the entire rest of the country is vulnerable to such missiles.
This week’s two ballistic missile strikes follow months of relative calm in the capital, where Russia has limited itself to occasional drone strikes.
