Russian airstrike on Kyiv ends three-day lull, hits suburbs

An air raid alert was triggered in Kyiv early Tuesday following a three-day pause in Russian attacks, prompting Ukraine's air defense to activate. Strikes and fires were reported in the capital's suburbs. The military administration confirmed air defense systems were operating in Kyiv after a warning of a new Russian aerial assault. Emergency services reported hits on industrial buildings in the Boryspil and Fastiv districts, causing vehicle damage and fires. The three-day lull in attacks coincided with a visit by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Ukraine. The strikes caused damage and destruction to vehicles in the affected suburban areas.
