Russian strikes on Kyiv kill 2, wound 10 after weekend pause
Russian drone and missile attacks on Kyiv killed two people and injured at least 10, local authorities said. The strikes ended a brief pause in attacks on the Ukrainian capital as U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff visited Kyiv in a renewed push to end the war.
Russian drone and missile strikes hit the Ukrainian capital Kyiv overnight on September 8, 2026, killing two people and injuring at least 10, according to local authorities. The attack ended a pause in strikes over the weekend, a period that saw U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff arrive in Kyiv for their first official visit as part of a renewed effort to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
Ukraine's State Emergency Service reported damage and fires in at least five districts of the capital. The Kyiv City Military Administration said on Telegram that damage to civilian infrastructure was recorded in at least 16 locations. A 26-story non-residential building was hit in the Holosiivskyi district, the administration added.
