Air raid sirens sounded for more than eight consecutive hours as multiple strikes hit Kyiv, which the air force described as the "main target of the strikes" on the Telegram mobile app.
The strikes came hours after a call between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, after which Trump said he was "disappointed" that Putin was not ready to end the war against Ukraine.
According to the BBC, the Kremlin said it would continue the war in Ukraine until it had addressed what it called "the root causes of the war in Ukraine."
