The military administration initially said one person had died in the attack, but later said the report had proved untrue.<\/p>\n
In a message on Telegram, Klitschko said that the ninth floor of a high-rise residence had been damaged, adding that 15 people had been evacuated from the building in a district just outside the city centre.<\/p>\n
Video published on unofficial Telegram channels showed a large fireball rising skywards. Unofficial channels said the building had been struck by a jet-powered drone.<\/p>\n
Local media said new explosions later jolted the city. An air raid alert remained in effect more than two hours after it was imposed.<\/p>\n
Klitschko said six people had been wounded in earlier strikes on the capital, which has been subject to more than a week of sustained attacks.<\/p>\n
