Russia says attack on Kyiv was 'response' to Ukrainian strike with Western missiles

Russia said it targeted arms industry and security service targets in strikes on Kyiv on Friday as a "response" to this week's Ukrainian strikes using Western missiles on a chemical plant in southern Russia.

"In response to the actions of the Kyiv regime, supported by its Western handlers, a combined strike with long-range precision weapons was launched today," the defense ministry said in a statement.
