Three people were killed and five others injured as a result of the overnight attack on Kyiv, according to the Kyiv City Military Administration.
A fire was reported in a non-residential area of the Dnipro district. Residents were urged to remain in shelters until the all-clear is announced.
Reports emerged of another strike in the same district - a residential building caught fire as a result of the enemy attack. Later, the military administration clarified that information about the building fire was not confirmed.
The Kyiv City Military Administration later confirmed that three people died as a result of the attack on the capital. Five others sustained injuries.
On September 1, explosions were heard in Kyiv - Russian units attacked the capital with ballistic and cruise missiles, as well as attack drones.
RBC-Ukraine has also written about the enemy's tactics: according to the Center for Countering Disinformation, Russia is launching attack drones at Kyiv in waves, trying to exhaust air defense systems and paralyze life in the capital with constant alerts.
Over the past weeks, the number of such drones has increased sharply - Russia is launching Shahed drones practically straight off the production line, even without prolonged storage in warehouses.
