Russian military forces have once again launched a large-scale nighttime missile attack on Kyiv and the surrounding regions
The capital and nearby areas were subjected to strikes involving a mix of drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles aimed at destroying strategic and civilian targets, as well as intimidating the peaceful population. According to the Kyiv Regional Military Administration, this was the fourth such attack in recent weeks, indicating an escalation in enemy aggressive actions. A military source confirmed that Ukrainian air defenses successfully thwarted the enemy’s plans — last evening, Ukrainian forces intercepted a significant portion of the dangerous targets. As of this morning, it is known that out of approximately twenty-five launched drones, at least fifteen were shot down, forcing the occupiers to change their tactics and seek new means to destroy infrastructure. Despite the efforts of Ukrainian defenders, the attack resulted in damage. In the Bilozerka district, debris from missiles and falling drones damaged numerous private homes: ten private houses suffered serious damage. Windows were shattered, facades tore apart, and roofs were destroyed, creating additional difficulties for local residents who now have to restore their damaged homes and recover from the night terrors. Fortunately, no casualties or injuries among civilians have been reported as a result of the attack. It is known that the alarm lasted over ten hours, indicating a tense situation in the region during the night. Local authorities urge residents to remain calm and exercise caution, as hostilities in the east and northwest of the country continue and require increased vigilance. Ukrainian military forces remain on high alert and actively respond to prevent any large-scale damage to lives and infrastructure. Experts also assure that the work to locate and destroy enemy drones and missiles continues around the clock, demonstrating Ukraine’s resilience and ability to defend its land from Russian aggression.
