Major explosions in Kyiv as Russia assault continues
Major explosions in Kyiv were heard through the night in the capital Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities on Thursday morning.
At least four major explosions around 03:30 local time lit up the night sky and were captured by witnesses on video.
The explosions came hours after a massive blast near Kyiv’s central train station shook the city. It happened very close to where hundreds of evacuees are sheltering from Russian shelling.
An advisor to Ukraine’s Interior Ministry said damage to infrastructure was caused by the falling wreckage of a missile after it had been intercepted by air defence systems.
A major heating pipeline was damaged, the official added. There were no casualties, Kyiv’s mayor said in the aftermath of the major explosion in Kyiv.
