Russian drones kill two in market outside Kyiv, three others in different regions, local officials say

Officials said the attacks also damaged homes and communications infrastructure as Russia intensified drone and glide-bomb strikes across multiple Ukrainian cities.

  • A Russian jet-powered drone strike hit the Stolychnyi wholesale market in Sofiiska Borshchahivka on the western outskirts of Kyiv, killing two people and injuring at least ten others as fires engulfed vehicles and stalls.
  • Three additional civilian fatalities occurred in separate attacks across Ukraine, including two killed by glide bombs near a family support center in Sumy and one driver killed by a drone strike in Kharkiv.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that Russian forces deployed 277 attack drones within a 24-hour period, with strikes damaging residential high-rises, a kindergarten, communications infrastructure, and a building used by the Saudi ambassador.
  • Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed that at least nine people were injured within the capital itself—including a child—amid extended air raid alerts across multiple districts.
  • The Russian Defence Ministry acknowledged targeting facilities in Kyiv and Odesa, maintaining its long-standing claim that military, communications, and logistical infrastructure were the intended targets rather than civilians.
