Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported that Russian forces targeted two gas stations in Kyiv, one in Dniprovskyi and another in Obolonskyi district. The Obolonskyi district station suffered two strikes, with the second occurring shortly after the first. The attack resulted in two deaths and eight injuries, with six of the injured requiring hospitalization.
Sixty-six-year-old rescue worker sustained injuries while reaching the scene after the first strike. Ukraine’s State Emergency Service confirmed the fatalities and injuries. Russia has been targeting gas stations throughout Ukraine in recent weeks. Pro-war Telegram channels suggest these attacks aim to instigate a fuel crisis in key Ukrainian cities, with Russia launching drone strikes on Kyiv overnight on September 11, damaging a nine-story building and injuring eight individuals.
