Russian missile attack on Kyiv kills one

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Russian forces attacked Kyiv on Tuesday with ballistic missiles, targeting energy sites, and Western allies had not warned Ukraine as they typically do.



A strike on a high-rise apartment building killed one person, Mayor Vitali Klitschko said. Apartments were ablaze and residents were being evacuated.



A series of explosions jolted the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in the late evening. and Zelenskiy and his military said there had been no advance warning of the strikes.



"Once again, no advance warning from our partners. The main target was energy infrastructure, specifically thermal plant No. 4," Zelenskiy said on Telegram without explaining why no warning was given.



"According to our intelligence, the Russians are preparing further ballistic missile launches."
