On the night of June 29, explosions were heard in Kyiv amid a Russian attack using Shahed-type attack drones. Air defense is working.

This is reported by "Komersant Ukrainian" with reference to the mayor of the Ukrainian capital Vitali Klitschko.

“In Kyiv, in Obolon, air defense forces are working against enemy UAVs. Stay in shelters,” he said.

Shortly before that, Klitschko warned that air defense forces were also operating near the Ukrainian capital. He reported that enemy drones were flying towards Kyiv.

The Russians launched the drones in the evening, on June 28. An air alert was declared due to the attack in almost all regions. At midnight, the alert was announced, in particular, in Rivne and Khmelnytsky regions.
