A massive Russian drone and missile attack has struck a civilian apartment building in Kyiv, injuring eight people, including a two-year-old child. -The assault was so severe that it prompted Polish and NATO jets to scramble and saw one drone cross into Lithuanian airspace.

Explosions were first reported in the capital late on July 27, according to Kyiv Independent journalists on the ground. The attack comes mere days after Russia and Ukraine held their third round of peace talks in Istanbul on July 23.

A Russian overnight air attack wounded eight residents of an apartment building in Kyiv, including a three-year-old child, authorities said on Monday, while the Ukrainian air force said a town hosting a key air base had been attacked.
