A 22-year-old police corporal, an officer with the Kyiv Metro Police, was killed during a Russian air attack on the capital overnight on July 10.

This was reported by Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

Klymenko stated that residential, medical, educational, commercial, and transport infrastructure were affected in eight districts of Kyiv as a result of the Russian attack.

“In the Podilskyi district, two women were killed: a 68-year-old Kyiv resident and a 22-year-old police corporal from the metro police,” Klymenko said.

According to him, more than a dozen people were injured, with more continuing to seek medical assistance.

“Door-to-door checks are ongoing in the damaged apartment buildings to ensure no one is left without help,” he added.

Emergency response headquarters have been deployed at the sites of impact.

Around 400 rescue workers and 90 units of fire-rescue, engineering, and robotic equipment from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) are involved in clearing the rubble and responding to the aftermath.

Rope access teams and demining specialists are also working at the scene.
