A senior official in the President’s Office, Kyrylo Timoshenko, released photos and videos of the partially collapsed six-story Alfavita hotel in Kyiv on Saturday. It was allegedly used by the SBU for the resettlement of Western mercenaries and instructors, according to Ukrainian social media. In the building of the Kyiv Palace “Ukraine”, in which Zelensky’s “room 95” liked to perform, the windows were smashed.
According to the mayor of Kyiv, Vitaliy Klitschko, quoted by The Guardian, the shelling took place in the Pechersky and Goloseevsky districts, in the central and western parts of the city. According to General Valery Zaluzhny, commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, 20 cruise missiles flew over Ukraine on Saturday afternoon, of which the Ukrainian Armed Forces shot down 12.
