Breaking: Explosion heard in Ukrainian capital Kyiv
Breaking: An explosion was heard in Ukrainian capital Kyiv around noon local time (1000 GMT) on Thursday, a Reuters correspondent reported, in one of a series of blasts which began after Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine.
A Ukrainian interior ministry official said that military command centres in several cities including Kyiv have been targeted by missile strikes.
Ukraine is being hit by a second wave of missile strikes, an adviser to president Volodymyr Zelenskiy told a briefing on Thursday.
Authorities in Kyiv say the first wave, launched shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a military operation on Thursday morning, hit military command centres and other buildings in several Ukrainian cities.
