Russia launched a large-scale attack on Kyiv overnight, killing 10 people, injuring at least 38 others and damaging buildings, Ukrainian officials said on Thursday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a child was killed in the drone and missile attack.

“Right now in Kyiv, first responders are clearing the rubble of an ordinary residential building after a Russian strike,” Zelenskyy said on X.

“Russia chooses ballistics instead of the negotiating table. It chooses to continue killing instead of ending the war. And this means that Russia still does not fear the consequences. Russia still takes advantage of the fact that at least part of the world turns a blind eye to murdered children and seeks excuses for Putin,” he continued.

António Costa, president of the European Council, said he was “horrified by yet another night of deadly Russian missile attacks on Ukraine.”

“My thoughts are with the Ukrainian victims and also with the staff of @EUDelegationUA, whose building was damaged in this deliberate Russian strike,” he wrote on X.

“The EU will not be intimidated. Russia’s aggression only strengthens our resolve to stand with Ukraine and its people,” he added.

Separately, Russia’s Defense Ministry said that its air defense systems intercepted 102 Ukrainian drones overnight.

Reuters contributed to this report.
