The United States will unveil a new round of security assistance to Ukraine on Wednesday, as Western leaders faced mounting pressure to stop Russia's bombardment of civilians and peace talks made halting progress.
A White House official said President Joe Biden will unveil another $800 million worth of military aid, expected to include more of the anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles that have helped slow Russia's three-week-old invasion to a crawl.
Ukraine's State Emergency Service said 12-storey residential building was among the targets hit, with at least two people injured, 37 evacuated and a nearby building damaged. Recent days have seen an uptick in Russian strikes on civilian targets, including in Kyiv and the besieged port city of Mariupol where there is a critical lack of food, water and medicine.
"What the Russians are doing is using our own humanity against us and Zelensky's humanity against him."
