Bombing in Kiev’s residential area leaves two dead

Two people were killed in a shelling of a residential area in western Kiev early on Tuesday, the Ukrainian Emergency Services said.

A 16-story apartment building in the Sviatoshynskyi district was significantly damaged by bombing and a subsequent fire. Two people were found dead at the scene and 46 were rescued from the building.

A separate attack caused minor damage to a nine-story building in the same district, emergency services said.

At least four residential buildings across the Ukrainian capital were hit by attacks on Tuesday.

A private home in Osokorky — a district east of the city center — was hit by shelling shortly before 6 am on Tuesday (1 am GMT), emergency services said in a statement.

Residential areas to the east, north and west of the city center were hit by shelling an hour apart. A fire broke out in a two-story building, but it was put out shortly afterwards. No casualties were reported.

Shortly after the attack in Osokorky, a 10-story apartment building in Podil — north of the city center — was hit, causing a fire in the first five floors of the building. One person was taken to the hospital.
