Meanwhile, abroad, the capital has woken up with explosions on the outskirts. The adviser to the Ukrainian Interior Minister Anton Guerashenko has attributed these explosions to the fire of the anti-aircraft batteries defending the city. According to the minister, the anti-aircraft defense of Kiev shot down a Russian device, which fell next to a residential building in the city without, for the moment, having reported victims.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has assured that, for the moment, the Russian troops have not entered Kiev, and has denounced that “The enemy attacks not only military installations, as he claims, but also civilians. They kill people and turn peaceful cities into military targets. This is vile and will never be forgiven, “he stressed. In turn, he recalled that” the last time our capital suffered something similar was in 1941, when it was attacked by Nazi Germany.
