Russians attacked Kyiv with 805 drones: what was destroyed and how many victims.
According to inkorr.com: On the night of Sunday, September 7, Russian forces launched a massive drone attack on Ukraine. A total of 805 'Shahed' drones and dozens of missiles were involved, some of which managed to break through the air defense system.
According to The New York Times, the most powerful attack was on the government quarter in Kyiv, which was considered the most protected. This attack led to tragic consequences – at least five people died, including a woman and a child.
“Such killings at a time when the conflict could have been resolved by diplomatic means are a conscious crime and only prolong the war,” commented President Zelensky.
In addition to Kyiv, the shelling also affected other cities in Ukraine. In Zaporizhzhia, one person was killed as a result of the attack, and 17 more were injured. In Kremenchuk, a drone hit a bridge over the Dnipro River, leading to the blockage of traffic.
Consequences and reaction to the attack
Prime Minister Svyrydenko published photos of the destroyed corridors in the Cabinet of Ministers and expressed concern about the consequences of the attack. Ukrainian military officials note that even with the elimination of 80% of the drones, the shelling continues to cause significant damage.
This attack took place against the backdrop of discussions about Ukraine's future security after the conflict ends. Diplomatic negotiations did not lead to a cessation of hostilities, and Moscow continues to carry out air strikes on Ukraine.
These events again highlight the seriousness of the security situation in Ukraine. The noted casualties and destruction indicate that the war continues, and peaceful initiatives have yet to yield desired results. In the face of constant threats, it is important for Ukraine to maintain unity and readiness to defend its territories.
