Russia has for the first time fired an intercontinental ballistic missile at Ukraine in a missile attack on Dnipro city during morning hours on Thursday, the Ukrainian Air Force reported.
The ICBM was launched from Russia's Astrakhan region, the Air Force said in Telegram, not specifying the type of missile, Xinhua news agency reported.
The attack included eight other missiles. The air defence shot down six cruise missiles, while the remaining missiles caused no "significant consequences," the Air Force added.
Regional governor Sergii Lysak said the massive attack on Dnipro damaged an industrial enterprise and caused two fires in the city.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined to comment, directing questions to the Defence Ministry.
