Yesterday evening, it became known that the Russian army again launched strike drones from several directions into the territory of Ukraine.

As a result of the attack, an air raid alert was declared in Kyiv. The sounds of explosions were also heard in the capital. Later, it was reported that falling debris was recorded in one district, and the balcony of one of the apartments of a multi-story building was damaged.

However, it was later clarified that the damage was unrelated to the Russian attack.
