The first explosions were heard at around 3:38 a.m., before air-raid sirens sounded in the capital at 3:40 a.m. and in the surrounding region at 3:54 a.m.
“The enemy is attacking the capital with missiles. Please remain in safe places,” Tymur Tkachenko, head of the Kyiv City Military Administration, wrote on Telegram.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko later confirmed that the city had been targeted with ballistic missiles.
“The number of injured in the capital has risen to six,” Tkachenko reported.
Three people were hospitalized, while three others received medical assistance at the scene. Officials did not immediately provide further details on their conditions.
