The latest pre-dawn Russian missile attack on Kyiv has killed at least three people, including a nine-year-old girl and her mother, Ukrainian officials said.

Ukrainian air defences on Thursday shot down all 10 cruise and ballistic missiles launched by the Kremlin’s forces but falling debris caused damage and casualties on the ground, wounding 16 people.
