Russia Launches Missile Strike on Kyiv, One Killed

On April 6, 2025, Russia launched a fresh missile attack on Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, killing at least one person and injuring three others. According to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, explosions hit the Darnytskyi district, setting non-residential buildings on fire and damaging vehicles.

This comes just two days after a deadly Russian missile strike on President Volodymyr Zelensky’s hometown, Kryvyi Rih, which killed 19 people, including nine children, and wounded 75. Russia claimed it targeted a restaurant where Ukrainian and foreign military officials were present, but Ukraine denied that allegation.

Ukraine’s air force reported that overnight, Russia launched 23 missiles and 109 drones. Ukrainian defenses intercepted 13 missiles and 40 drones, but many still hit their targets.

In response, NATO scrambled fighter jets from Poland and nearby countries to monitor the situation and strengthen air defenses. The international community has strongly condemned the attacks and called for de-escalation.

President Zelensky criticized the U.S. response as “weak,” demanding stronger international action against Russian aggression.

These attacks highlight the ongoing intensity of the war and its toll on civilians and infrastructure across Ukraine.

Ukraine Explores Bitcoin for National Reserves in a New Legislative Push
Kyiv, Ukraine - Ukrainian lawmakers have officially introduced a draft bill that could authorize the National Bank of Ukraine to establish a strategic reserve of Bitcoin (BTC). The move, spearheaded by Member of Parliament Yaroslav Zheleznyak, signals a significant step towards integrating cryptocurrencies into the nation's financial framework.
The proposed legislation aims to amend the existing laws governing the National Bank, granting it the authority to hold and manage digital assets as part of the country's international reserves. If passed, this would place Bitcoin alongside traditional assets like gold and foreign currencies, potentially diversifying and strengthening Ukraine's financial position.
The initiative has garnered attention within the global cryptocurrency community, with reports suggesting that major industry players, including the cryptocurrency exchange Binance, have been advising Ukrainian officials on the matter. The bill is seen by proponents as a forward-thinking approach to finance, especially for a country that has actively utilized cryptocurrency donations for defense and humanitarian aid since the onset of the 2022 conflict.
While the bill's introduction is a crucial first step, it will need to navigate the legislative process, including debates and potential amendments, before it can be enacted into law. The development is being closely watched as a potential model for other nations considering the inclusion of digital assets in their national reserves. The image associated with the news, featuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy alongside a representation of a Bitcoin coin, underscores the high-level consideration this initiative is receiving.#ukraine #BTC #Kyiv
