as posted by the channelA 12-storey apartment building in central Kyiv was damaged by artillery shelling on Wednesday, according to a statement and images released by the Kyiv emergencies agency.
The agency also reported two victims, without saying if they were injured or killed.
The top floor was obliterated and a fire ignited in the building which sent plumes of smoke across the area.
A neighboring building was also damaged.
The shelling in Kyiv's Shevchenko district took place at 6 am local time (0400GMT).
Footage shows emergency workers tackling the blaze while civilians look on, with injured people being carried across piles of rubble.
Russian forces have intensified fighting in the Kyiv suburbs, notably around the town of Bucha in the northwest and the highway leading west toward Zhytomyr, the head of the Kyiv region Oleksiy Kuleba said.
Twelve towns around Kyiv are without water and six without heat.
A senior U.S. defense official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the Pentagon’s assessment, said the Russians were using long-range fire to hit civilian targets inside Kyiv with increasing frequency but that their ground forces were making little to no progress around the country.
