A hotel south of the city centre and homes were hit. Ukrainian artillery fired back.
Governor of Kyiv, Oleksiy Kuleba said “The terrorist country launched several waves of missiles.
“They are wishing us a happy New Year. But we will persevere.”
Kuleba called for Russia to have its seat on the United Nations security council rescinded for “deliberately targeting residential areas, not even our energy infrastructure.”
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian ministry of defence wrote that “with each new missile attack on civilian infrastructure, more and more Ukrainians are convinced of the need to fight until the complete collapse of Putin’s regime.”
Their human rights official, Dmytro Lubinets called the bombing “Terror on New Year’s Eve.”
“The terrorist country is congratulating the Ukrainian people with missiles.
“But we are indestructible and unconquerable. There is no fear, but the fury is rising. We will definitely win,” he said.
