At least two explosions were heard in Kyiv on Tuesday and smoke could be seen rising over the city.
According to Reuters, the blasts followed air raid warnings across Ukraine hours after President Volodymyr Zelenskiy delivered a video address to leaders of the Group of 20 nations who are meeting in Bali.
The mayor of Kyiv, Vitaliy Klitschko, confirms the explosions in the city and refers to them as an “attack”.

The Russians are very good at hitting residential buildings, killing civilians and uprooting trees with Putin’s bomb 😂 They rarely hit any target 😂
This is very cheap action by Russians forces to hit civilians. My prayers for innocent civilians of Ukraine. From Pakistan ❤️
@David Curry this is a lie, the AFU only fired at the Russian criminals that had moved in the Donbas in 2014 and terrorized the civilians
@Michelle Rainer Yep, of course, it’s a lie,
I suppose all the bridges and infrastructure damage were also damaged by those naughty Russians toooo..
@David Curry this is the 21st centuries, we have CCTV, satellites and everybody has a smartphone in the West, everything is documented, which means all the Russians thieves and liars will be put on trial
@Michelle Rainer Ahhh, good to see you trust our Fake News Western media 👏
@David Curry It’s nothing new, from a regime like RuZZia that callously starts a war that kills tens or hundreds of thousands of people. With such a track record, one should never believe a word they say.
Senseless attacks against the Ukrainians will never break the Ukrainian People’s will to win. Slava Ukraini!
Just watch
@Alex Bort Just watch the Putin Nazis get humiliated.
@Alex Bort terrorist!
Dude, how I hate these morons. As a Brazilian, I never hated any people specifically, but now, from the bottom of my heart, I hope all the russians soldiers have a painful death. All my feelings to Ukraine 💛💙
Sounds like an Israeli report from ABCNBCCBSCNNFOXNPR PBS…very poor
withdraw troops in kherson, concentration of ukrainian troops split towards kherson, then russia sends missiles to kiev… very smart 🇷🇺
yea bombing residential buildings very russian
Smart?🤣😅🤣😅🤣
Ok, Putin troll farm loser with the fake name
@staruieala florin 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡👎🏻👎🏻🇺🇦🇺🇦😨😰🥶❄️Shiva Ukraine ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
Go on Russia. The world is behind you
Only in your realty. (Without your meds)
You much they paying you for the comment ?
only the dystopian part of the world
Behind you giving you a gentle push off the cliff ;D
I am surprised that there were not so many people for peace when the USA invaded Iraq or Afghanistan and Yugoslavia…. the only thing I can understand is that world powers can do whatever they want with the little ones 🤷🏻
Putin is a hard-core criminal who should pay for his sins.
What about the Superior wonder US air defense system…I here NHASAMS.. “”hahaha.. one thing I wonder is that Russia only target “Civilians”, “non militarily targets”, if not that, “No Casualties at all recorded”! So should we say Russian army is a stupid military system or Ukrainian militants and there hardware are invisible and imotor ?? Haha… Western Media and your propaganda!!!!
Sorry for the poor people who can make better decisions for their life and depend on purpet leaders!!
Ukraine hasn’t seen anything yet Russia is still in cruise control
Eu prepare for 10mil refugee. Good luck
The angry and frustrated losers in action. Note that you won’t break down the morale and the determination of one people who i wants its liberation,fredoom and normal life. You won’t achieve anything special with your terrorist attacks. Slavia Ukraine from Africa
I hope the G20 countries give more to Ukraine to take out Russia, this needs to end now! Slava Ukraine!
This is surreal. LETS STOP THIS. this is horrible. senseless daily bombings and murder. A sick old man needs to be put out to pasture.
OMG where is the military targets Russia a JOKE 😅
2-3 rockets 🤷 thought it would be more
Yes rest were shot down. Love a big one to hit the Kremlin for a change. Fairs fair?
Russia is simply desperate to do something and bombing innocent people is their norm
It is time Belarus gets a hiding!
More to come!
On your home as well I hope.
Whilst Ukraine busy killing hundreds of Russian soldiers and liberating thousands kilometres of territories, Russia disgrafully busy targeting civilian infrastructure
Well well well what did that clown say yesterday this is the beginning of the end yes for him 🤣🤣🤣
When a clown become the leader,his palace doesn’t turn him into a king.He turns the palace into a circus.
When an old maniac becomes the leader of a large and powerful country like Russia, God save Russia and God save the world.😬👎👎
So, you’re talking about Putin the sad clown?
@boink800 Putler turned his palace into a game of cluedo :p
@boink800 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🤡🤡🤡❄️🤡Zhithedsky crackhead puppet of clown town 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Jotnar Zhithedsky loves MSM drones nearly as much as crack
Massive explosions not residential
This shows how weak and stupid Russia is.
Ukraine soldiers are pounding and liberating cities , inflicting heavy casualties on Russia whilst Mad Dog Putin is busy attacking civilians.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Africa stands with Ukraine, free world and Democracy
thank you ❤ democracies across the world need to stand together
You must white South African, no Blackman will stand with the Nazis who hates his/her Colour
For the endless and daily bombings in the Donbass, for the daily killing of civilians by the Ukrainians, they receive bombs in Kiev.
Joseph what?? I am an African i don’t know you bro
Shot up which Africa?😂😂😂
Putin is putting it in the right direction lol 👉😂😂😂😂
STAY strong Russia love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Stay strong means keep on bombing another country? What kind of people are you?😬🤭👎👎
Sure, ‘stay strong’ invading another country. Save yourself the trouble and go home!
Slava Ucraina
Brain, thanks again for the detailed report – many comments since the intense battles around Sievierodonetsk, suggesting that AFR tactics are holding back and allowing AFU to pour more and more troops into the slaughter – massive AFU attrition – another WAPO article you quoted included a Ukrainian soldier admitting that his group never even saw a Russian soldier, that they were being taking out entirely by stand off fire and that when they switched on their phones they’d be almost immediately targeted by artillery – notably, of late, social media posts from AFU troops have dwindled significantly, suggesting they’ve figured out what AFR did long ago, in proscribing cell-phones in combat zones – this brings into question all the so-called ‘intercepted’ communications from AFR troops to friends and family describing their terrible conditions – and the war propaganda never ends – most recently we hear reports of Russians looting Kherson as they retreated – if there is serious looting, seems more likely it’s done by stay-behind civilians – seriously, if you’re retreating to save your life, are you going to risk it by taking the time to steal a washing machine, and haul it how ?!?! now waiting for the Bucha-redux stories, after SBU arrives and starts interrogating the stay behinds

@Uncle Sam 🏴☠️ Pitam se kolko je ukrajinskih idiota poginulo do sada za interese anglosaksonskog šljama i njihovih trabanata…

Another criminal attack on civilians by the orc army led by adolf putin. Slava Ukraini!
Another round of terrorism
There is civilian casualties not much as western media pretends but definitely they could be destroyed natzi power grid that build by soviet russians in the past
We love you Mr President Putin and you are a hero of this World.
Yes, nice how he is sending soldiers to the front without food and ammo, they came to die. very nice president…not…maybe if you like war crimes and have no culture an moral
🤡🤡🤡
RUSSIA is systematicaly destroying the Infras power grid…transportation ….and railway networks…and the clowns celebrating …the victory in Kherson….while RUSSIA is destroying ukraines capital ..from a distance 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You don’t seem to understand how time works
Zelanski is brainless human
Why shouldn’t they activate NASAMS???? Or are they not capable???
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 this tells us in typical Ukrainian fashion they’re hiding government-military offices in civilian structures. Do your work and show what was really in those residential buildings. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Death to Rusia ⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️
Like the reports that came from Kyiv about Mariupol,
the ability of the Ukraine Military to install the facilities
inside residential structures appear to be planned to
make Russian attacks appear similar to the Azov work
that was going on for 8 years in Donbas?
Commercial reporters appear to be providing
propaganda?

How foolish to think that Russia Will Just let go the kherson region so simple as that. And YOU the media Will keep on DOING the propaganda. REALITY IS EMERGING
Russia literally labeling Ukraine to the ground like Syria
Syria 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Ukraine 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Where is the new western air defense systems? It seems it didn’t work 😂😂😂
Victory to Russia
Always residential buildings?
We wouldn’t of expected anything else from Russia..killing civilians That’s all they are good for..that’s cause they are hopeless when it comes to fighting the Ukrainian ground troops..soon Ukraine will have the iron dome..stay strong..🙏🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 ukraine..
Air raid and no kill ?????????????????
So, did the ukrainian human air defense systems this time around shoot down every single missile with their hand held guns? Because Ukraine always seem to shoot down ninety five plus percent of missiles. Even the US doesn’t have such efficiency
Viva Russia please continue to diminish zelensky and Ukraine puppet of brainless west and America devil worshipers
walcam Rashia
Russia long live
This is serious? The missile hit a building but the building window’s don’t broken? 😳😳 Only in Kiev 😂😂😂
Also, isn’t Russia supposed to be out of missiles? In the last attack, Russia fired 50 missiles. This time around, 85 missiles. I don’t think a military nearly out of missiles will be firing this many missiles.
dude thats all propaganda, theyve been stocking up for the last 8 years preparing for this war.
So if this is your thinking then who are you accusing of hitting Kyiv, I’d say Russia still has some .
Ukraine need to hit Russia back.
@Shane Logan nope
Baron it’s but lies
@JumboJacko So why must Russia buy missiles
NOW they know how The Donbas people feel!!
And the winner of the remaining scrub land of rocks and rubble is………………
Brain wash at its best 🤣
Russian Heroes
Why every media reported about residential building been hit. What a nonsense report
And Biden was celebrating victory in Jerson, imagine this war another 5 years from now.
Russia is a total war crime criminal, why they always targeted civilian area with no military personel or military base , they are so far away from the actual frontline, putin should put in trial and be punish in his war crimes.
FUERA ZELENSKY NAZISTA PAIAÇO
Russia cant beat the Ukrainian army so they attack civillians
Where was Al Jassera while the ethnic Russian civilians of Ukraine were brutally murdered by the Ukrainians.
This war is a revenge attack by Russia.
Go get him Guys.
Glory to Russia.
Time to launch rockets into Russian capitols, see how they like it.
So you want World War 3 ?, look in the mirror you will see a clown.
Very bad
These people 😮do not have a woman to make love to instead of war 😅
Russian Cowards can’t beat the AFU so they target civilians instead. So sad
Bla bla bla bla bla God bless Mr Putin and mother Russia Odessa Will be part off Russia you are all hippocrits
Lets make this clear, the Russian armed forces DID NOT lose the city of Kherson,they simply retreated across a clearly defined border, the Dnieper River. Ukraine does not now occupy the city, merely 30% of it which the Russians left, crossed the river & destroyed the many bridges which cross it. Russia still retains 70% of the city. I really do get annoyed when journalists simply cherry pick the facts to support their own narrative.
@Jetster7 ukrajinski oslobodioci, hahahahaha….
@Dejan Pavlović In English plz, otherwise I don’t give a flying eck what gibberish you’re rambling about. Next…
@Jetster7 Tvoj problem ako ne razumeš sarkazam….
@Dejan Pavlović Hydvh hu ded reght fdvg ffv grjyh dvgj jiy! 👍
@Jetster7 hehehehehe…..
Russia is still running out of missiles … it’s a process.
Putin is so humiliated by the world and the g 20:meeting , he is having another temper tantrum.Putin is finished and his brown noser gutless military generals are to cowardly to stop him.
Have a happy winter Europe…
Finally China has seen the light and is critical of warmongering Russia! 🌍✊🇺🇦
Enough of hardship comedian, go for negotiations with the Russian President or you will face total destruction of Ukraine.
It’s the show us Russia is losing in Ukraine now .
You can understand government buildings, military or police or administrative sites etc but hitting isolated residential areas or buildings is an outright act of evil
yup you are right, so Russia is now better than Ukraine, who has bombed Civilians in the Donbas since 2014.
Tell that to the US when they bombed Iraq and Afghanistan
We have stories that our Ukrainians soldiers use those innocent looking buildings as hide outs and command centres. With the login luck of independent media and the biased reporting of the media houses you know about, we may not fully know what is going on. War is evil and those who support it are evil. The interests of UK, USA, Ukraine and even Russia are evil.
Let us not be simplistic and Russia is wrong or Russia is wrong.
What is the root cause of this war?
Viva Putin viva Rusia
Why war is not escalating. Plss do something to involve Nato
Good news🎉🍾
Russia saved their trap solders now thy will begin the actual war
Go on Russia! The whole world on your side part from Israel and US.
Am not part of Russia f* UK Putin
Punch happy mayor understands what is happening..? Comedian Zelensky should brief him.. when he sobers..!
Glory to Russia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇮🇩🇮🇩
I thought Russia was running out of missiles? I thought Russia was retreating and losing the war? It’s obvious that American news is so anti Russia, but some of these other channels aren’t hiding it anymore. I missed the good old days when the news was actually reported and not opinionated.
May God Bless and protect Ukraine from Barbaric Cowardly russian aggression.
This is war it’s doesn’t say civilion.
War is Business Please Taking the Mass as fools
DESPERATE ZELENSKY WITH A GO SIGNAL 2 THUMBS UP FROM THE U.K. AND U.S. EMPIRE OF LIES ORDERED TO BOMB BLAST POLAND TERRITORY USING A WESTERN BOMB WITH A RUSSIAN DESIGN TO GET MORE NATO WEAPONS AND SOLDIERS TO FIGHT WITH THEM AGAINST RUSSIA 😂🤣 I CAN’T HELP BUT LAUGH OUT LOUD LOLZZZ 😂🤣😂 TO EU COUNTRIES, YOU ARE NOW IN FULL THROTTLE BEING PLAYED BY THE U.K. AND U.S. EMPIRE OF LIES USING ZELENSKY WHO BECAME AN INSTANT BILLIONAIRE PROFITEERING FROM THIS WAR 😂🤣 DESPERATE

Eight Years Before documentary ?.
Što bi rekli američki nacisti i njihovi trabanti, tokom borbandovanja Srbije 1999. godine, bombardovanje tih objekata je “kolateralna šteta”, prema tome može se reći da je ovo što se dešava u ukrajini upravo kolateralna šteta…
ΤΟ ΞΕΡΕΤΕ?..ΝΑ ΤΟ ΜΑΘΕΤΕ..ΠΑΜΕ ΓΙΑ ΆΝΟΙΓΜΑ 👉ΤΩΝ ΝΕΚΡΏΝ..ΑΝΑΣΤΑΣΗ ΝΕΚΡΩΝ.. ΒΟΉΘΕΙΑ ΜΑΣ
