The missile attack was launched from a Russian air defense system located in the city of Kursk, approximately 240 kilometers to the east of Kyiv. It is believed to have been fired at the Ukrainian capital in order to demonstrate Russia’s military power and to send a direct message to Ukraine’s leaders.

Emergency services have reported that the damage is so bad that some of the buildings may not be able to be repaired.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense has stated that it will be deploying additional security forces to Kyiv in order to ensure the safety of its citizens. The ministry also said that the attack had been quickly and effectively repelled and that no loss of life or injury had been reported.
The Ukrainian government has also asked the United Nations to take a firm stance against this act of aggression and to impose sanctions on Russia. It is hoped that this will force the Russian government to rethink its policies in Ukraine and to end its support for separatist forces in the country.
