Russian drone attack hits Kyiv apartment block during ceasefire period

Russian drone attack hits Kyiv apartment block during ceasefire period

Russian drone strikes have collapsed a residential building in Kyiv, according to Ukrainian officials.

The attack came during a period when a US-mediated ceasefire proposal was being discussed.

Officials said Russia had launched more than 1,500 drones since Wednesday.

The strike hit the Ukrainian capital and caused a residential block to collapse.

The incident adds to pressure on Kyiv at a time when diplomatic efforts around a ceasefire remain unresolved.

It also underlines the scale of drone activity reported by Ukrainian officials in recent days.

The attack took place in Kyiv, the centre of Ukraine's government and a frequent target in the war.

Damage to housing in the capital is likely to heighten concern about civilian exposure to continued strikes.

The available report does not give details on casualties, the extent of the damage beyond the collapsed building, or whether air defences intercepted any of the drones.
