KYIV—Two Russian missiles struck Ukrainian capital Kyiv on Thursday during a visit by the head of the United Nations, Ukrainian officials said.
The rockets shook the central Shevchenko district of the city and one struck the lower floors of a 25-story residential building, wounding at least 10 people, Ukrainian officials said.
