At least four people have been killed in Russian airstrikes on Kyiv, while drone attacks continue across the Ukrainian capital and the surrounding region.
The attacks have continued for six consecutive days. Air raid warnings have reportedly been silenced only briefly, for periods of 20 to 40 minutes, before sounding again as new waves of drones arrive.
