**Kyiv, Ukraine (January 1, 2025)** – A Russian drone attack on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv early Wednesday morning injured at least three people and caused damage to buildings in two districts, according to city officials. Explosions rocked the city shortly after an air raid warning. Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported that air defenses intercepted the drones, but a residential building suffered partial destruction to two floors. Damage was also reported to a non-residential building in a separate area. This latest attack is part of an ongoing series of Russian air strikes targeting Ukrainian cities throughout the nearly three-year-long war.
