The Russian forces who have reportedly entered the Ukrainian capital are seemingly centred around the northern district of Obolon and the forces are said to be close to the presidential palace, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) reported.
The heavily residential area is just 9 kilometres north of Kyiv’s parliament and the city centre with the BBC showing map of the advance.
Just before 10:00 a.m. local time, Ukraine’s Defence Ministry tweeted that enemy Russian operatives were in the area.
The defence ministry called on locals to rally and make Molotov cocktails to fight back.
Meanwhile, several videos online appear to show armoured vehicles rolling down mostly-empty roads in Obolon. The BBC has verified that Obolon is the location seen in the videos.
There are also videos appearing to show fighting between civilians and people in military uniform.
Kyiv has also been attacked from the air, with residents taking shelter in underground railway stations
