Russia resumes Kyiv strikes after three-day pause

Russia has resumed attacks on Kyiv, with a series of powerful explosions heard in the Ukrainian capital overnight after ending a three-day pause in strikes. Multiple buildings have been hit in Kyiv and the surrounding areas of Boryspil and Fastiv, according to preliminary reports. Kyiv's mayor Vitaliy Klitsko said the city is being attacked with ballistic missiles, while Ukrainian emergency services reported drone strikes on the outlying districts. The Russian state news agency Tass confirmed the end of the attack pause, which had been observed during the weekend visit of US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to the city. Air raid sirens were triggered, and authorities urged residents to take shelter.
