Details: He also emphasised that there were no casualties in the city as a result of the air defence system operation and the falling wreckage.
Popko noted that this is already the sixth air attack on Kyiv since the beginning of the month.
He asked all Kyiv residents not to ignore air-raid warnings and to always follow safety rules since the Russians have intensified airstrikes on Kyiv.
Quote from Popko: “Judging by the weapons used, the enemy seems to have returned to the tactics they had in May 2023. Back then, they constantly changed, combined and alternated the types of airstrikes. Kyiv residents experienced the same scenario in the first half of December. Attack UAVs, cruise missiles from strategic bombers, and Iskander and Kinzhal (Dagger) missiles attack Kyiv one after the other, replacing each other.”
