An overnight Russian drone and missile attack in and around Kyiv killed one person, sparked fires in residential areas and damaged an entrance to a metro station that serves as a bomb shelter, Ukrainian authorities said on Monday.

"The Russians' style is unchanged – to hit where there may be people," Timur Tkachenko, head of Kyiv's military administration said on the Telegram messaging app. "Residential buildings, exits from shelters – this is the Russian style." Russia has not commented on the strikes.
