Oct 12 (Reuters) – A Russian strike on a high-rise residential ​building in a ‌suburb of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv killed one person and injured ‌11 ​on ⁠Monday, officials said.

The ⁠city’s military administration and Mayor Vitali Klitschko said one person ​had died after the evening strike ⁠on the ⁠25-storey building.

Klitschko said ​11 people were injured, ​with three being treated ‌in hospital.

Pictures posted on unofficial Telegram channels showed parts ⁠of an apartment building ablaze.

Russian attacks on Kyiv and ⁠other ‌Ukrainian cities, ⁠previously conducted chiefly ​at ‌night, now disrupt ​daily ⁠life virtually around the clock.
