On October 14, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held a conversation with the Prime Minister of Canada, during which he reported on a recent strike on Kyiv. According to him, the attack resulted in significant damage to a residential apartment building and human casualties.
Details of the Attack on Kyiv
The strike on Kyiv caused damage to a residential high-rise building, leading to a fire that engulfed apartments from the first to the eighth floor. At the time of the report, it was known that:
- 1 person was killed;
- 6 people were injured;
- rescue workers were actively working at the scene;
- the evacuation of residents from the building was ongoing.
Lack of Warning about Ballistic Launches
