Russian Attack Kills Three, Including a Child, Near Kyiv

Regional officials said the strikes also wounded three people and damaged homes, vehicles and nonresidential buildings.

  • On Saturday, August 8, 2026, Russian strikes killed three people, including a child, in the Brovary district near Kyiv, according to regional official Tymur Tkachenko, head of the Kyiv regional administration.
  • Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported fires in two districts of Kyiv following an air raid alert, while Ukraine's air force warned of the "threat of ballistic weapon use from the north" as explosions shook the city center.
  • Three more people were injured in the attack, with falling debris damaging homes and vehicles in the Brovary district. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Serbia for his first official visit to meet Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić.
  • Aleksandar Vučić maintained his refusal to sanction the Russian Federation on Thursday, stating his position set nearly five years ago remains unchanged. Despite supplying non-military aid to Ukraine, Serbia's historic ties to Moscow complicate its path toward European Union membership.
  • A senior Ukrainian official described the visit as an attempt to "pull the Serbs away from Russia's side," but Zelensky faces resistance as Vučić remains adamant his administration will not alter its established foreign policy.
