Russian jet-powered drone rips into 16-story Kyiv apartment building – photo

A Russian drone struck the upper floors of a 16-story residential building in Kyiv's Podilskyi district overnight, part of a mass aerial assault that killed eight people in the capital and wounded eight more, according to Mayor Vitalii Klitschko. A separate strike hit a courtyard near a five-story building in another district; emergency crews responded to both scenes.

Ukraine's Air Force said Russia fired ballistic and cruise missiles alongside nearly 200 attack drones, with air defenses intercepting most of them; missiles and drones still struck 28 locations nationwide. A ballistic missile strike on a Kyiv railway depot killed seven people, six of them employees, and leveled a repair workshop.

The broader assault on Kyiv Oblast killed four more people and wounded 13, with Boryspil hit hardest — an apartment building, a store, homes, and a car service station all damaged. The overnight attack marked the fifth consecutive day of near-constant drone strikes on the capital region.
