WATCH: Rescue efforts in Kyiv after Russian missile strikes kill six

The strikes, which damaged over 70 sites across the capital, caused severe destruction in the Sviatoshynskyi and Solomianskyi districts.

A missile hit a nine-story residential building in Sviatoshynskyi, flattening its entrance and trapping residents under the rubble. Four people died at the site.

Emergency crews worked through the morning to rescue survivors, including a man pulled from debris after five hours. At least nine children were among the injured.

Explosions were also reported in the Dnipro, Poltava, Sumy and Mykolaiv regions.
