This seems to be a similar sort of Medal but judging by the suspension for Kiev. Any info on this one guys?

Eddie,

It is a commemorative badge for the 50th anniversary of the heroic defense of Kiev.
I believe that it is not to be put in the same category as the Leningrad Blockade Survivor badge.

Marc,

Thank you for the info, I could not read what it said. Certainly not in the Class of the Siege Medal.
Maybe you could answer this one. On the above Medal the suspension has the same colour as the Kiev defense Medal. Do such Medals as the one I posted exist for other cities, for example Stalingrad, Odessa etc.?

TIA Eddie.
