Attack on Kyiv on June 6

On the night of June 6, Russia launched a massive attack on Kyiv using Shahed drones, which approached from multiple directions. Rescue teams recorded debris falling and fires in many parts of the city.

As a result of the enemy shelling, the red metro line is partially out of service, and it will take at least a day to restore its operation. It is known that the above-ground stations from Dnipro to Lisova are temporarily closed for entry and exit. Full restoration of the line's operation will take about a day. Kyiv City State Administration is preparing additional ground transport to carry passengers of the red line.
