Kyiv, Sept. 17 (SANA) Thirteen people were injured in Russian airstrikes on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and the Black Sea port city of Odesa early Thursday, Ukrainian officials said.
Ten people were injured in Kyiv, where the strikes damaged residential buildings, apartments and warehouses, Reuters reported, citing Ukrainian officials.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said debris from the strikes fell near a gas station.
In the Odesa region, three people, including a child, were injured when a Russian strike hit a 19-story residential building, local authorities said.
The attacks came a day after five people were killed and at least seven others injured in a Russian drone strike on a bus near the front line in southern Ukraine.
United Nations data showed civilian casualties have risen to their highest levels since the first months of the war.
