A gunman opened fire on people in the street in Kyiv's Holosijivskyj district on Saturday, killing at least six people and wounding several others in an attack unrelated to the ongoing Russian war against Ukraine. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed that five people died at the scene of the shooting, while one woman died after being transported to hospital. The incident represents a rare case of civilian gun violence in the Ukrainian capital, which has been under frequent Russian bombardment since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022. Ukrainian authorities have not yet released details about the gunman's identity or motive for the attack.
