The head of Kyiv’s military administration said the capital had been hit by drones in several waves, the 12th attack in Kyiv this month. Regional and military leaders of southern and western Ukrainian districts also indicated that Russian drones were shot down in the regions.
Russia has stepped up nighttime missile and drone strikes against Ukraine since early May. On two occasions, it deployed hypersonic missiles of the Kinsall type, which are extremely difficult to intercept. Kiev says it intercepted the missiles with the US Patriot air defense system for the first time during the war, but Russia has denied this.
According to Volodymyr Zelenskiy, since the beginning of the war, about 1,160 Iranian-made drones have been deployed against Ukraine. MTI reports that Ukraine’s president has called on Tehran to stop supplying Russia with drones.
