Overnight Russian aerial attacks hit the densely populated Pozniake area of Kyiv.
One of the many tower blocks in the neighbourhood caught alight and windows were blown out.
Working in the smoke and debris, firefighters managed to put out the flames as explosions continued to rock the city.
At least eight people have been injured in Pozniake.
One resident vowed, “Putin, we want to see you slaughtered like an animal.”
Elsewhere the night sky was illuminated by other blasts. Sirens were still sounding as the overnight curfew lifted at 7:00 am local time. Kyiv hasn't been a city waking up - because few have slept.
And the explosions keep coming.
The powerful images Ukrainians have been sharing overnight make a mockery of the Kremlin’s promise that civilians have nothing to fear by what it claims is a focussed operation solely targeting the Ukraine military.
