Ukraine’s State Emergency Service reported two injured. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the attack involved ballistic missiles.

The strike set warehouses ablaze in two districts. Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said all fires had been contained, adding that the casualty count was still being updated.

The previous Russian strike on Kyiv took place in the early hours of July 6. That attack, carried out with ballistic missiles, killed 19 people in the Ukrainian capital, according to the latest reports. On July 7, Kyiv declared a day of mourning for the victims of the Russian strike.
