Russian drones killed a man and injured eight in Kyiv, hitting two gas stations
The overnight wave sent 200 drones at Ukraine, and the capital's filling stations have become a recurring target this month.
Russian drones killed a man and injured eight others in Kyiv on September 15th, hitting two gas stations, warehouses, a restaurant, and an office building. The attacks were part of a night-long wave of 200 drones that also targeted Odesa Oblast in southern Ukraine. Moscow's ongoing full-scale war against Ukraine has seen Russia target the country's civilian supply system, including retailer warehouses, medicine depots, and railways.
In Kyiv, the first drone struck a gas station in the Darnytskyi district shortly after 6:00 AM, critically wounding a man who was standing near the station. The attack continued, with drones hitting warehouses, a building, and another gas station in the Holosiivskyi district. Mayor Vitalii Klitschko reported the number of injured rising from two to eight by morning, with two in serious condition.
Emergency services put six of the eight injured in the Solomianskyi district. Beyond the two gas stations, damage was reported to warehouses, a fast-food restaurant, and a business center. Russian forces also struck residential buildings, logistics sites, and port and transport infrastructure in Odesa Oblast. NATO fighters shot down a drone over Lithuania that had crossed from Belarus, and Ukrainian forces targeted the Syzran refinery in Samara Oblast and a warehouse in Taganrog.
