Video. Ukraine: Russian Drone Barrage on Kyiv Kills Teenage Boy and Wounds 20 Residents
- On Friday morning, a 14-year-old Israeli boy was killed when a Russian drone struck a 16-story residential building in Kyiv's Pecherskyi district near the Israeli Embassy; his mother was wounded in the attack.
- This strike follows weeks of intensified Russian drone operations against Ukrainian cities. Russia has deployed faster, jet-powered Shahed-style drones capable of flying at altitudes of 4 to 7 kilometers, straining Ukraine's air defenses.
- Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported nine injured across the capital, eight of whom were hospitalized. The drone struck the upper floors of the apartment building, with reports placing the impact between roughly the seventh and 10th floors.
- The Israeli Foreign Ministry is assisting the teenager's family, while the FJCU condemned the attack. "This marks the fifth High Holy Days holiday season spent under the shadow of war," the FJCU said.
- Russia's Defense Ministry claimed its forces targeted Ukrainian defense industry facilities, denying deliberate attacks on civilians. The United Nations has warned that sustained drone use in densely populated areas is a major driver of civilian casualties.
