Early reports indicate that the UAVs were the same Shahed type. They were launched from the north and north-east. The loitering munitions started approaching Kyiv in several waves.”

Details: The air-raid warning in the capital was in place for about three hours. 

Kyiv City Military Administration stressed that Ukrainian air defence shot down about 15 Russian attack drones that were targeting Kyiv. Air defence responded to the drones on the outskirts of Kyiv and in the city directly. 

Quote from Popko: “Early reports say that the debris fell in the Obolonskyi district of the capital. 

As a result, a non-residential building was damaged. There has been no information about the casualties.”
