“More than 40 air targets were detected and destroyed by our air defense. The attacks on Kyiv have been repelled,” the civil and military administration of Kyiv said on its Telegram channel.




This attack, the 15th targeting the Ukrainian capital since the beginning of May, was carried out using cruise missiles launched by TU-95MS strategic bombers and explosive drones, she said.

According to her, “with these constant attacks, the enemy seeks to keep the civilian population in a state of deep psychological tension”.

The roof of a building was damaged by falling debris, according to the same source, who also posted a photo of a hole in what appears to be a corrugated iron roof. “There are no dead or injured,” Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko said on Telegram.




Overnight from Saturday to Sunday, two people were killed and three others injured in what Ukrainian authorities called “the most significant drone attack” on Kyiv since the Russian invasion began in February 2022. According to Ukrainian General Staff, 58 of the 59 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched on the capital that night were shot down.
