Kyiv says anti-aircraft defences in action against Russian attacks

Anti-aircraft defences in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv were in action early on Friday morning, trying to fend off Russian attacks, the mayor and military authorities said in separate messages on Telegram.

Russia has launched around 20 separate missile and drone strikes against Ukrainian cities since the start of May.

"There are explosions in the city. Air defences are working," Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said in a message, adding that a new wave of drones was heading for the city.
