Russia launches air attacks on Kyiv, killing one person

Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, was hit by two waves of air attacks from Russia, resulting in the death of one person and the injury of another.

The attacks occurred on the last Sunday of May, which is celebrated as Kyiv Day.

Kyiv’s air defence systems downed at least 40 drones, but falling debris killed a 41-year-old man and injured a 35-year-old woman.

Several districts of the city, including the historical Pecherskyi neighbourhood, were affected by the attacks.

The attacks come as Ukraine prepares for a counteroffensive, and Moscow has intensified its missile and drone attacks this month after a lull of nearly two months.

Reports of drone attacks in Russia have also increased in recent weeks.

Moscow has blamed Kyiv and its Western supporters for the attacks, but Ukraine has denied involvement.
