Russian drone strikes National Academy of Sciences building in Kyiv

A Russian drone hit Ukraine's National Academy of Sciences in central Kyiv on Monday, killing at least one person and injuring nineteen others. The attack happened just before 1:30 p.m., when the building was full of workers. The drone set the top two floors on fire. Some people escaped by crawling out of windows and waiting for rescue teams to arrive. Firefighters searched through the rubble in the courtyard. The academy, built in the 1850s, is where most of Ukraine's important scientific work has taken place. Within hours, more strikes hit other parts of Kyiv, including a clinic, residential buildings, and a medical facility. Ukrainian officials say Russia is deliberately targeting places that have nothing to do with the military.
