The Kyiv Oblast Military Administration reported the threat of missile attacks. Citizens are asked to go into shelters and stay there until the end of the air-raid alarm. 

Updated: At approximately 18:02 the air-raid alarm began to cease in the centre, and partly in the north.

Background: US Department of State stressed that the Russian Federation launched more than one missile, one drone, or one bomb every hour at Ukraine during the first four days of May.
