The Ukrainian Air Force has reported "ballistics on Kyiv," as air defense measures were activated in the capital city. Kyiv's Mayor Vitaly Klitschko said three people have been injured in the ongoing, overnight attacks. He said in a post on Telegram that Russian drones are "entering the city" and urged people to "stay in shelters." Of those injured, two were hospitalized and one was treated on the spot, Klitschko said in an update. The mayor said medics were "heading to the scene" in an earlier post on Telegram after the attacks began. Metro tracks between two stations in Kyiv were damaged from the attacks, but there was no fire or casualties, the head of the Kyiv City Military Administration Timur Tkachenko said via Telegram. He wrote in an earlier post that the city is under a "combined attack." "Our air defense calculations are doing everything possible. But we must protect each other! Stay safe," Tkachenko said. The Ukrainian Air Force also reported cruise missiles heading towards Lutsk, Chernihiv, Lviv, and the Rivne regions of Ukraine around 4:30 a.m. local Ukrainian time. Earlier there were preliminary reports that a "high-rise building was hit" in Chernihiv, a city northeast of Kyiv, the head of the Chernihiv City Military Administration Dmitry Bryzhynskyi wrote via Telegram. "The city is currently under attack," Bryzhynskyi added.

In a phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump on Wednesday, the memorandums for a potential peace deal presented Monday were not discussed, Putin's aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters. A U.S. official also said this week that there was evidence that Russia was preparing to retaliate against Ukraine for the drone strikes that targeted Russian military sites on Sunday.
