For the second consecutive night, Ukrainian air defense forces successfully repelled a Russian drone attack on the region.

According to the report, the Russian forces fired Iskander-M ballistic missiles from the Voronezh region of Russia and Crimea, as well as Shahed drones from the direction of Cape Chauda in Crimea and Kursk in Russia.

Ukrainian air defense forces detected and tracked 7 Shahed drones, successfully downing all of them in Kyiv, Poltava, Kherson, and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

While there were no direct hits on residential or critical infrastructure in the Kyiv region, falling debris from the downed drones caused injuries to two people — a man and a woman. Both victims have been transported to a hospital and are receiving necessary medical care.

As of 8:00 AM, authorities have confirmed damage to two private homes in a local settlement outside Kyiv. The structures sustained damage to roofs, facades, windows, and doors. Emergency crews are currently assessing the situation and working to clear the debris.
