Russian drone and missile strikes hit several high-rise apartment buildings in Kyiv on 9 January 2026. Four people died, including a paramedic responding to the incident in the Darnytskyi district.
At least 24 others were injured, among them rescuers and medics, during the attacks on the Comfort Town complex. Explosions caused structural damage, including destroyed entrances and blown-out windows.
Emergency crews worked through the night to clear debris, extinguish fires, and evacuate residents from affected buildings. Municipal services were assessing damage to utilities, including electricity, water, and heating.
