A father and daughter have been killed in Kyiv following a Russian drone strike on an evangelical church.

The mother survived despite being thrown 50 metres away from the scene by the force of the blast. She was subsequently treated in hospital.

According to Premier Christian News, the family had been displaced from their home due to attacks in Orikhiv, before rejoining each other in Ukraine’s capital city. The man and his five-year-old daughter were killed by a bomb dropped by a second drone, which also caused significant damage to the church building.
