Russian attacks on the Kyiv region

Air defense forces are continuously repelling drone attacks on Kyiv in the capital region. The night of November 3 was no exception. Explosions were heard in the Kyiv region, and air defense was active.

The Kyiv City Military Administration reported that air defense shot down all drones that Russia aimed at Kyiv. This was despite the fact that the drones approached the capital in groups and at very low altitudes.

Additionally, it should be noted that the occupiers have been frequently attacking Kyiv through the Kyiv region lately. For instance, on the night of November 2, a woman was injured in the Kyiv region due to a drone attack. There were also damages reported.
