STORYLINE:
Rescue workers were seen Thursday pulling bodies out of the wreckage of a building destroyed by a major Russian attack on Ukraine’s capital.
Overnight missile and drone attacks overnight on Kyiv killed at least 13 people, including a 6-year-old boy, and wounded 132 others, authorities said Thursday.
A 5-month-old girl was among 14 children wounded, Ukraine’s Emergency Service said.
It was the highest number of children injured in a single attack on Kyiv since the start of Russia’s invasion three years ago, according to public records consulted by The Associated Press.
A large part of a nine-story residential building collapsed in the attack, City Military Administration head Tymur Tkachenko said.
Rescue teams were searching for people trapped under the rubble.
Russia fired 309 Shahed and decoy drones, and eight Iskander-K cruise missiles overnight, the Ukrainian air force said.
Ukrainian air defenses intercepted and jammed 288 strike drones and three missiles.
Five missiles and 21 drones struck targets.
