Russian forces attacked Kyiv on the morning of September 4, causing a fire in a non-residential area and injuring one person, according to city authorities. Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported the incident in the Solomianskyi district and said medics treated the injured person in the Holosiivskyi district on an outpatient basis. The attack follows a previous Russian strike on Kyiv that injured 13 people. Russian troops regularly use drones, missiles, guided bombs, and rocket systems to target Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure across all regions. Ukrainian authorities and international organizations classify these strikes as Russian war crimes, noting their deliberate nature. Russia denies targeting civilian infrastructure, while legal experts argue Moscow's actions during the war constitute genocide under the 1948 UN Convention.
