A Russian missile attack overnight killed at least 12 people in Kyiv.

Local authorities said this.

At least 33 people were hurt.

Ukraine’s Emergency Service said this.

The air raid alert was still on in the early morning.

The strikes hit 12 places in three Kyiv districts.

They damaged homes, a hospital, and a school.

In one district, the top two floors of a nine-story building were destroyed.

People were also stuck in two homes and a school shelter.

A 60-year-old woman lives there.

Her name is Larysa Bondaruk.

She said her neighbor’s grandson died under the rubble.

She said a rocket hit the roof.

It blew out doors and debris.

Two people died in her building.

She thanked the rescuers.

They worked fast.

Russia has increased its missile attacks.

It wants to use up Kyiv’s air defense supplies.

Kyiv has few systems to stop ballistic missiles.

Its U.S.-made Patriot systems do not have enough supplies.

Ukraine has also increased its own long-range attacks on targets deep inside Russia.
