Russian Missiles Strike Kyiv, Triggering Fires Across Capital

Russian forces attacked Kyiv with ballistic missiles early Tuesday, causing fires in multiple districts. Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported air defense systems were active. The air alert lasted about 50 minutes; no casualties were reported. Tymur Tkachenko, head of the capital's military administration, said two storage areas were hit and set on fire in the Holosiivskyi district just outside the city center. Klitschko added that drone debris hit an open area in an eastern suburb, setting cars ablaze. Air-raid sirens preceded half a dozen explosions.
