A residential building was hit by a Russian bombardment on the morning of Monday, March 14, in Kiev, Ukraine. The strikes caused several casualties.

A residential building was targeted by a Russian strike, in the heart of the Ukrainian capital of Kiev, on the morning of Monday March 14. Helped by their ladders, the firefighters extracted the injured from the devastated apartments. This strike, probably an artillery fire, caused the death of a civilian and injured 12 people. Since the beginning of the war, never had a bombardment targeted the capital. The fighting has so far been concentrated around Kiev (Ukraine), which civilians continue to flee as much as they can.

AT Mariupol (Ukraine)town martyrthe sky is constantly veil by plumes of smoke. The large port city in the south of the country has been under siege for two weeks now. AT Donetsk (Donbass), pro-Russian separatists claim that a strike by the Ukrainian army would have resulted in the death of at least 16 people.
