A Russian attack on the Ukrainian capital late Monday killed one person and wounded eight, mayor Vitali Klitschko said, adding that medical facilities and a dormitory were damaged.
Russia has intensified drone and missile attacks on Ukraine in recent weeks, putting Kyiv, a city of around three million people, on a near-constant state of alert.
