 Ukraine war: Civilians killed in missile strikes on Kyiv and Kharkiv

Four people have been killed and dozens of people wounded in Russian missile attacks targeting the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and second biggest city Kharkiv, according to officials.

Residential buildings were hit early on Tuesday in the north-eastern city of Kharkiv, leaving three people killed and another 42 injured.

They included two women of 40 and 56. 

The city mayor said part of a block of flats was destroyed and rescue workers were combing the rubble for survivors.

The sky over Kharkiv turned burnt orange with fire after the strikes, which used multiple kinds of Russian missiles. The city is close to the border - it's difficult to intercept the missiles in the air.
