In a post on social media, Ihor Klymenko says residential areas, hospitals and sports infrastructure were hit. "An entire section of a residential high-rise building was destroyed" in the worst-hit Shevchenkivskyi district, he says, adding that some people are trapped under the rubble. In the Kyiv region, a woman was killed and another two people injured in the Russian aerial attack, regional head Mykola Kalashnyk says. The Russian military has not commented on the issue.

Exterior painting of high-rise buildings is a challenging task. In our country, as well as in other countries of the world, this task is accomplished manually, which is risky and life-threatening for the workers. Researchers and industry experts are trying to find an automatic and robotic solution for the exterior painting of high-rise building walls. In this paper, we propose a solution to this problem. We design and implement a prototype for automatically painting the building walls' exteriors. A spray mechanism was introduced in the prototype that can move in four different directions (up-down and left-right). All the movements are achieved by using microcontroller-operated servo motors. Further, these components create a scope to upgrade the proposed remote-controlled system to a robotic system in the future. In the presented system, all the operations are controlled remotely from a smartphone interface. Bluetooth technology is used for remote communications. It is expected that the suggested system will improve productivity with better workplace safety.

Senior foreign affairs correspondent Greg Palkot reports the latest from London. Russian President Vladimir Putin is speaking out following a drone attack on Moscow, calling the strikes an attempt by Ukraine to "intimidate" his country. The remarks come after eight drones targeted Russia's capital early Tuesday before being shot down or diverted with electronic jammers. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the attack caused "insignificant damage" to several buildings and that two people received treatment for unspecified injuries but did not need hospitalization. Residents of two high-rise buildings damaged in the attack were evacuated.

According to American construction safety statistics, about 20% of worker deaths in the United States occur in the construction industry, but construction workers only account for 6% of the American workforce. For the fatal construction industry statistics, one-fifth of the deaths of American workers occurred in the construction industry. As for the Non-Fatal Construction Injuries, The construction industry accounts for 6% of all injuries that result in lost days of work. As a result, it is estimated that fatal construction injuries cost the United States $ 5 billion every year in terms of medical care, lost income, reduced quality of life for family members and lost production. The total cost of workplace injury exceeds $ 170 billion per year.[NSC] Workers' compensation claims for nonfatal falls account for $2.5 billion annually.
