KYIV \u2013 Russia attacked Ukraine’s capital with a mass drone and missile attack early Thursday morning that injured at least four people, local authorities said. <\/p>\n

Damage was recorded across six districts of Kyiv, according to head of Kyiv’s Military Administration Tymur Tkachenko. He warned Russia<\/a> was attacking the capital with ballistic missiles and drones. Residential buildings and civilian infrastructure was damaged. <\/p>\n

In the Darnytsia district, a multistory residential building partially collapsed splitting the structure in half and burying people under the rubble. At least 10 people were rescued from the rubble, according to Ukraine’s Emergency Service. <\/p>\n

At the scene, emergency workers searched for survivors as smoke from the attack continued to smolder beneath the pile of rubble.<\/p>\n

In the Dnieper district, a drone hit the roof of a five-story residential building, Tkachenko said. Another building in the Dniprovskyi district was also damaged. <\/p>\n

Explosions were heard across the capital early morning Thursday. <\/p>\n

The attack came hours after a rare daytime attack<\/a> on Kyiv that killed at least six people, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. <\/p>\n

That attack involved at least 800 drones, he said. He said the attack that lasted hours aimed to cause as much \u201cpain and grief\u201d as possible. <\/p>\n
