After the air raid, which lasted more than two hours, Popko clarified that this morning, for the first time in 73 days, Russia launched a combined missile and drone attack on Kyiv.

The invaders sent kamikaze drones and cruise missiles at the capital almost simultaneously, and when the latter was approaching Kyiv, they also struck with ballistic missiles. Finally, they launched drones again.

"The enemy probably used air-launched cruise missiles, KN-23/KN-24/Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Shahed/Geran/Gerbera/Parodya drones... As a result of the air battle, the Defense Forces destroyed several cruise missiles, several ballistic missiles, and up to a dozen enemy drones," stated Popko.

"A man was wounded as a result of the fall of debris from downed enemy targets in one of the localities. The man of 48 years old received head abrasions, his condition is satisfactory. The necessary medical aid was provided on the spot. He refused to be hospitalized. A warehouse caught fire at the site of the fall of the debris. The fire is localized.
