Russia-Ukraine updates: Kyiv hit by kamikaze drones, says Ukraine presidential office
Witnesses and Ukrainian officials have reported at least two blasts near the center of the capital. The explosions come a week after a wave of deadly Russian missile strikes hit Kyiv and other cities.
According to witnesses, two or three blasts hit the central Shevchenkivskiy district, which was also rocked by explosions last week.
DW correspondent Fanny Fascar reported "several" explosions, saying there was a noise "that appeared to be the sound of a drone."
Fascar also confirmed reports of more blasts about an hour later.
Shevchenkivskiy is a busy area with universities, bars, and restaurants. Last week's strikes were seen as retaliation for a blast on a bridge linking mainland Russia to Crimea.
