A mass Russian drone and missile attack on Ukraine's capital early Thursday killed at least three people and injured 12, local authorities said.

Among the dead was a 14-year-old child, said Tymur Tkachenko, the head of Kyiv’s city administration.

A residential building in one district was hit directly. “Everything is destroyed,” he said.
