The building housing the German consulate in Kyiv has been by a Russian missile strike, according to Germany’s foreign ministry.
There have been no casualties reported. It has emerged that the building has not been in use by Germany since the war broke out.
The former chairman of the Böll Foundation in Kyiv, Sergei Sumlenny, posted photos on Twitter and said addressing Chancellor Olaf Scholz (64, SPD) and Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock (41, Greens):
“The building where the visa office of the German embassy in Kyiv was located was hit by Russians today. Maybe some Leopards can be sent to check the situation on the ground?”
