Russian strikes on Ukraine on night of July 21

Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia has been regularly striking Ukraine with missiles of various types, drones, artillery, and guided aerial bombs. Russia strikes Ukraine with drones almost every night.

The night of July 21 was no exception. Kyiv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Kharkiv were particularly affected by today's Russian strikes. During the Russian attack on Kyiv, Russia damaged the ground part of the Lukyanivska station, which led to its temporary closure.
