Russia does not spare civilians, hit with residential building rockets in Kiev (VIDEO)

The attack has also affected civilians, though Putin said no such thing would happen. A residential building in Ukrainian capital Kiev was hit by a Russian attack in the early hours of Friday morning, reports the BBC.

Home damage is seen in published images. Kiev's mayor said earlier that at least three people were injured as a result of missile attacks.

Later, President Zelensky also confirmed that Russia had carried out numerous missile attacks on both military and civilian targets.
