Ukraine's capital is showered in debris from intercepted Russian drones, city officials say.
Kyiv was attacked by Russian drones early on Sunday and debris fell in several districts, Ukrainian officials say, but no casualties were reported.
Kyiv Military Administration chief Serhiy Popko said debris had sparked a fire in a residential building, but it had been extinguished.On Sunday, the city authorities named the affected districts as Podilskyi, Sviatoshynskyi and Shevchenkivskyi, all in or near the city centre. Kyiv's air defence system has proven effective at downing most Russian drones and missiles targeting the city.
Drones allegedly from Ukraine have previously flown deep into Russia, including to the Moscow region, and recently hit planes at a military airbase in Pskov. But Ukrainian officials generally neither confirm nor deny their involvement in such raids. The BBC has not verified the claim, which comes just days after Russia said it had destroyed four Ukrainian speedboats off Crimea.
