Rusija je pokrenula napad raketama i dronovima na ukrajinsku prestonicu Kijev i Lavov, grad na zapadu zemlje koji je blizu granice sa Poljskom, članicom NATO.
Rojters javlja, pozivajući se na izjave očevidaca, da je više eksplozija odjeknulo na obodu kako Kijeva tako i Lavova i da zvuči da je u pitanju dejstvo sistema protivvazdušne odbrane.
Ukrajinski vojni zvaničnici su potvrdili da je PVO angažovana na odbijanju napada.
Britanska agencija navodi da je ovaj napad izveden samo dan nakon velikog ruskog vazdušnog udara na ukrajinski vojni institut u Poltavi, u centralnom delu zemlje.
U tom napadu Rusia je koristila dve balističke rakete, a po broju žrtava on je najsmrtonosniji pojedinačni vazdušni udar od početka godine, pošto je poginulo najmanje 50 osoba, a ranjene su stotine ljudi.
