Kuleba said that today's attack is a reminder that Ukraine urgently requires more air defense, particularly Patriot systems and missiles capable of repelling any Russian attack.
Several explosions rang out in Kyiv early on Monday.
Ukrainian Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk reported the destruction of two ballistic missiles fired by Russian troops at Kyiv from temporarily occupied Crimea.
According to preliminary data, fragments of downed missiles were found in the Pecherskyi, Holosiivskyi, Solomianskyi and Dniprovskyi districts of Kyiv.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said that the attack had injured five people in the Pecherskyi district.
