NATO member Poland has scrambled fighter jets after Russia’s latest blitz on Ukraine.
The jets took to the skies as Vladimir Putin sent the latest wave of kamikaze drones and rockets at Kyiv.
Eight people, including a two-year-old girl, were injured in the strikes with shrapnel wounds after one bomb hit an apartment building.
Kyiv’s Mayor Vitali Klitschko said that all of the people were residents of a multi-storey apartment building in the city’s Darnytskyi district on the left bank of the Dnipro River.
Four of those injured in the attack, which took place soon after midnight on Monday, have been hospitalised, with one person in serious condition, the head of Kyiv’s military administration, Tymur Tkachenko.
The capital and most of Ukraine were under air raid alerts for several hours overnight following Ukrainian Air Force warnings of Russian missile and drone attacks.
The Polish Ministry of Defence said the jets took off as a precautionary measure during the strikes.
They said: “Polish and allied aircraft on standby were scrambled and ground-based air defence and radar reconnaissance systems were placed on the highest level of combat readiness.”
