Russia fired ballistic and cruise missiles at the Ukrainian capital early on Sunday with neither casualties nor damage reported, the Kiev City Military Administration said in a statement.

At about 5 a.m. local time (0200 GMT), ballistic missiles were launched at Kiev, but they were intercepted on the city's outskirts, the statement said.

"This is already the third ballistic strike on the capital in August, with an exact interval of six days between each attack," it said.

Two hours later, the Russian forces fired cruise missiles against Kiev from the southern direction, but the missiles were destroyed by the air defense, the city military administration said.
