Summary

Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv on the night of October 26-27, targeting a State Trade and Economic University dormitory and residential areas, resulting in 1 death and 15 injuries according to Ukrainian authorities. The attack damaged university buildings, residential structures, medical facilities including an intensive care unit, metro infrastructure between Darnitsa and Chernihivska stations, the Southern Bridge, and commercial facilities including an Auchan hypermarket. A 46-year-old woman was killed in the Desnianskyi district, with nine of the injured hospitalized. Students were sheltering when alarms sounded; those injured included people outdoors and dormitory residents.
