New Delhi : Black smoke has been seen rising from near the Ukrainian defence intelligence headquarters in central Kiev, BBC reported.
Ukraine said some of its military command centres have been hit by Russian missile strikes on Thursday morning after Moscow launched a military operation against its neighbour.
The building appears to be intact, and the smoke actually appears to come from a large fire next to the building. Witnesses have seen uniformed people throwing bags on to the fire, the report said.
Just outside Kiev, in the town of Brovary, authorities said at least six people were killed by a series of missile strikes.
