Russia-Ukraine conflict: Downed plane crashes in Kyiv; rocket wrecks residential building

As sirens wailed across the city, Ukrainian forces say they downed an enemy aircraft over Kyiv in the early hours of Friday, which then crashed into a residential building and set it on fire. Meanwhile, firefighters arrived at the scene of a wrecked residential building in a Kyiv suburb following Russian rocket attacks overnight. Most of the residents of the apartment block that was bombed are families of former Soviet army servicemen and border guards. Their homes were among the 33 civilian sites bombed amid Russia’s assault on Ukraine in the last 24 hours. Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Thursday and Kyiv has reported dozens of fatalities and hundreds of wounded.
