One missile was destroyed by Ukraine’s air defense unit and the rest hit “infrastructure facilities in the north of the Ukrainian capital”, the military said.
Earlier, Vadym Denysenko, adviser to Ukraine’s Minister of Internal Affairs, said that a military target and a civilian target had been hit.
Several of the missiles hit the Darnytsia Carriage Repair Factory, injuring a railway worker, according to Oleksandr Kamyshin, CEO of Ukrainian state railway company Ukrzaliznytsia. Passenger trains were not delayed by the attacks, he said.
Kamyshin denied Russian reports that his company was housing any military equipment and invited journalists to visit the factory and check it out.
“I officially declare that there is no military equipment on the plant’s territory. This factory has repaired freight cars, including the ones we use for exporting grain,” said Kamyshin.
“His real target is Ukraine’s economy and the civilian population,” he said. “They also want to block our opportunity to export Ukrainian products to the West.”
