A massive Russian overnight attack on Ukraine damaged the Embassy of Qatar in Kyiv besides damaging other infrastructure, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Friday. “In addition to our civilian infrastructure and energy facilities, a building of the Embassy of Qatar was damaged last night by a Russian drone,” Zelenskyy said on Telegram. He emphasised the diplomatic significance of the target, describing Qatar as “a state that does so much to mediate with Russia in order to secure the release of prisoners of war and civilians held in Russian prisons.”
