On the morning of June 5, Russian missiles hit the city of Kyiv after a five-week-period of relative peace for the Ukrainian capital.

The missiles targeted the Darnytsia Car Repair Plant on the left bank of the capital.

The explosions took place in Darnytskyi and Dniprovskyi districts of the capital, said the mayor of the capital Vitaliy Klitschko. One person was injured.

The Russian military claims that they were aiming to destroy armoured vehicles stored there, but the rail company Ukrzaliznytsia claims that only grain trucks were damaged.

The chairman of the board of Ukrzaliznytsia invited journalists to a press conference at the DVRZ to demonstrate that "Russia has once again lied."

Footage from on the ground seemingly shows no military vehicles at the site.

The morning shelling of Kyiv was from the Caspian Sea, the command of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported. According to preliminary data, the missiles were launched from Tu-95 aircraft from the Caspian Sea.

"Russia's Air Force destroys T-72 tanks and other armored vehicles delivered by Eastern European countries with high-precision long-range air-based missiles on the outskirts of Kyiv," said Igor Konashenkov, a spokesman for Russia's Defense Ministry.

The chairman of the board of Ukrzaliznytsia, Oleksandr Kamyshin, confirmed that the Russians had hit the Darnytsia Car Repair Plant, located on the left bank of Kyiv, with four rockers. But he stressed that there were no tanks."We did not make any public statements about the shelling, because in this case the movement of passenger trains was not delayed. But the Russian Defense Ministry did not remain silent. They once again lied," - said Kamyshin.

"I officially declare that there are no military equipment on the territory of the DVRZ. This plant repaired gondola cars and grain trucks, which we use to export products," he said.
