Russia fired his greatest aerial photo ever in Ukraine early Sunday, in which at least two people were killed and set the seat of the Ukrainian government in Kiev on fire, the authorities said.
A AFP reporter saw the roof of the Ukraine cabinet of ministers in flames and smoke wavy over the capital.
Drone Strikes also damaged various high -rise buildings in Kiev, according to emergency services.
Russia has shown no signs to stop his three-and-half-year-old invasion of Ukraine, stimulating the harsh requirements to end the war, despite the efforts of the United States to conclude a peace agreement.
The barrage came after several European countries, led by France and Britain, promised Thursday to use “reassurance” troops in Ukraine to patrol a peace agreement between the warring parties -a requirement that Moscow has unacceptably unacceptable.
The strike on the cabinet of ministers of Ukraine, a vast government complex in the heart of Kiev, was the first such strike of the war.
A AFP reporter saw helicopters fall what looked like buckets of water over the roof, while emergency services rushed to the stage.
“The roof and the upper floors were damaged by an enemy attack. Rescuers put out the fire,” said Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko on Telegram.
“We will restore the buildings. But we cannot reduce lost lives. The enemy terrorizes and kills our people every day throughout the country,” she said.
Russia fired at least 805 drones and 13 missiles in Ukraine between late Saturday and early Sunday, the largest of the war, according to the Ukrainian Air Force.

AFP repairs heard explosions about the capital at the beginning of Sunday.
A strike on a residential building with nine floors in the west of Kiev of Kyiv killed at least two people, a mother and her two -month -old son, said prosecutors.
According to the police, more than a dozen others were injured.
The Rescue Service of Ukraine placed photos in flames with the building, while smoke waves from the facade.
The barrage came after more than two dozen European countries promised to patrol an agreement to end the war, some of whom promised troops on the spot.
KYIV says that security guarantees, supported by Western troops, are crucial for every peace agreement to ensure that Russia will no longer arrive in the future.
But Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Western troops in Ukraine are unacceptable and are “legitimate” goals.
The efforts in recent weeks by US President Donald Trump to end the war have made little progress so far.
Russian troops occupy a total of around 20 percent of Ukrainian territory.
Tens of thousands were killed in three and a half years of fighting, which has forced millions from their houses and destroyed a large part of the Eastern and southern Ukraine in the bloodiest conflict of Europe since the Second World War.
