Details: UK Ambassador Melinda Simmons wrote on Twitter that the aggressor sent a "violent gift" to the city: "Sat in shelter listening to the very loud whoosh bang sounds outside and feeling the walls shudder. This is not normal," the UK representative in Kyiv stressed.
EU Ambassador Matti Maasikas noted more explosions in Kyiv than during "normal" air attacks.
"As if the aggressor were to perversely mark the day of Kyiv. Will not break the spirit of this mighty city," the ambassador stated on his Twitter.
