Claim 1: “Russian ballistic missiles killed 12 people and injured more than 30 in Kyiv early on Thursday”
DISPUTED
There is a direct contradiction between sources regarding the death toll for the specific event. One source (Meta-Media) explicitly corroborates the claim of 12 deaths and 30+ injuries on a Thursday. However, another source reporting on a ballistic missile attack in the same districts (Sviatoshynskyi, Solomianskyi, and Darnytskyi) reports only one person killed. A third source reports a different event on a Tuesday with 18 deaths.

Claim 2: “Russian ballistic missiles... damaging buildings and severing power supply to some parts of the Ukrainian capital”
CORROBORATED
Multiple independent web search results confirm that Russian ballistic missile strikes damaged buildings and caused power outages in Kyiv. Both the Meta-Media source and the source detailing attacks in the Sviatoshynskyi, Solomianskyi, and Darnytskyi districts confirm building damage and power disruptions.
