Three people were killed and three others were injured in an attack on the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv on Saturday, according to officials, in a move Russia said was in retaliation for Ukraine using US-made ATACMS missiles.

At least three people were killed in the assault on the capital, and at least one died and 11 were wounded in a separate strike in the southern city of Zaporizhzhia.

Ukraine said the strikes hit Kyiv and Zaporizhzhia overnight. Russia called the Kyiv strikes a response to Ukrainian attacks on Belgorod.
