As a result of the massive night russian attack on Kyiv, a fire broke out on the territory of Mystetskyi Arsenal. Presumably, it occurred due to the hit of a Shahed. This was reported by the press service of the national cultural, artistic and museum complex.

Rescue services are currently working on the site.

"We are finding out the extent of the damage and assessing the consequences for the building of the institution. Fortunately, our employees are safe. For many people, Mystetskyi Arsenal is a meeting place with culture, history and important public conversations. Today, russian aggression once again strikes a blow to the cultural heritage of Ukraine," the press service said.

As a reminder, during the attack on Kyiv, the roof of the Assumption Cathedral of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra caught fire. According to Tkachenko, it was a direct hit.
