3 people killed in Kyiv following a Russian shelling attack in Ukraine

Russian strikes on Kyiv have killed three people and injured 32 others, among them an 8-year-old child, according to Ukraine’s National Police. Officers are documenting the consequences of the attack as emergency services respond across the capital.

The National Police said investigators and forensic experts are recording damage at the affected sites and collecting evidence for a criminal investigation into Russia’s strike. The casualty figures may change as rescue operations and site inspections continue.

Police said the victims include three people killed and 32 wounded, with the injured group including the 8-year-old child. The report was published by Ukraine’s National Police, which is documenting the aftermath of the Russian attack on Kyiv.

Ukrainian authorities have repeatedly described Russian attacks on Kyiv as strikes on civilian areas and infrastructure. Recent attacks have caused fires, damaged residential buildings and vehicles, and forced emergency crews to work across several districts of the capital.

The National Police said it is documenting the consequences of the attack as part of proceedings into alleged Russian war crimes. Such cases are typically investigated under Ukrainian law for violations of the laws and customs of war.

The information comes as Russia continues large-scale aerial attacks on Ukrainian cities, combining drones and missiles. Ukrainian officials have warned that civilian casualties and damage to energy and transport infrastructure remain a major risk as winter approaches.
