Russian Drones Hit Kyiv Gas Stations, Kill 1 as 200 UAVs Attack Ukraine
Ukrainian officials said gas stations were hit in several districts as rescuers reported eight people injured in the morning assault.
Russia launched 200 strike UAVs at Ukraine starting Sept. 14, with Ukrainian air defense forces shooting down or suppressing 187 enemy drones by Tuesday morning.
The assault included Shahed, jet-powered, Gerbera, and Parodiya decoy drones, which Ukrainian aviation, electronic warfare units, and mobile fire groups repelled overnight.
Early Tuesday, Russian drones struck Kyiv, causing explosions in the Darnytskyi, Solomianskyi, and Holosiivskyi districts; strikes on gas stations injured eight people.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed infrastructure hits on Telegram, while the State Emergency Service and medics treat the injured in city hospitals.
Preliminary Lithuanian data indicates drones entered from Belarus, prompting Poland to activate aircraft during the Russian strikes across Ukrainian territory.
