On the occasion of the G7, the Ukrainian capital Kyiv was once more attacked by at least 14 missiles and a huge explosion occurred.

The BBC’s Sophie Williams in Kyiv reported that one person was killed and several wounded following a missile attack on an apartment building in Kyiv, according to a spokesman for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. It was also the first attack on Kyiv in weeks and coincided with a summit of the G7 group in Germany.

The mayor of Kyiv said the attack was carried out by Russia to intimidate Ukraine ahead of an international summit.
