A Russian drone struck a residential building in the heart of Chernihiv on August 24, causing injuries to at least 18 people, including two children, during Ukraine's 35th Independence Day celebrations. The strike marked a cynical act of terrorism by Russian forces, who launched three waves of attacks on the city, with the drone hitting the building around noon local time.
The nine-story building sustained a fire on its ground floor, with rescuers working to extinguish the flames and medical teams attending to the injured.

July of 2026 saw the highest number of civilian casualties since the start of the conflict, with 437 civilians killed and 2,610 injured, marking a 30% increase from the previous month.
