‘Missed’: Zelensky taunts Russia with image of apparent missile part near his presidential residence in Kyiv

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky taunted Russians after a top aide claimed what appeared to be a missile fragment fell near the presidential residence in Kyiv

Zelensky responded: “Missed.”

Nykyforov’s post didn’t include photos of any other pieces of the purported missile, or of a point of impact.

Russian forces invaded Ukraine on February 24, but their progress has been slowed by logistical setbacks and fierce Ukrainian resistance.

Since the initial attack, Russia has claimed just one major city: Kherson. Ukrainian officials and human rights groups have accused Russia of war crimes, alleging Putin’s forces are bombarding civilian populations.
