Russian Ukraine War Live | Russian Missiles Strike Kyiv After Putin Challenges The West To A Duel

A Russian missile attack kills one person and damages buildings across Kyiv, local officials say after explosions are heard in the Ukrainian capital on December 20. The rush-hour attack sparks fires in several buildings and damages multiple office buildings, according to Serhiy Popko, head of Kyiv's military administration. Russian forces used eight missiles, including hypersonic Kinzhal missiles and Iskander/KN-23 ballistic missiles, to carry out the attack. Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirms the attack injured at least seven people, with four taken to the hospital. Ukrainian air defences engage in repelling the missile attack. Witnesses report hearing multiple explosions following an Air Force warning about the attack. A video released by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine shows firefighters hosing down a warehouse as smoke fills the air. The fire is contained just after 4 a.m. (0200 GMT) with no fatalities or injuries.
