Kyiv targeted in morning Russian strike, causing damage across multiple districts — photo
A Russian airstrike targeted Kyiv on the morning of September 29, wounding one person in the Holosiivskyi district and damaging several homes in the Solomianskyi district, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service reported.
The Russian military has been struggling to cope with false reports circulating among its own personnel, according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW). This issue has become more prominent as Ukraine's offensive in the Lyman sector gains ground. Milbloggers and Russian military correspondents are blaming these false reports for hindering Ukrainian success and degrading Russian forces' ability to plan operations.
One milblogger even admitted that the Russian propaganda machine has flooded the information space with false claims, making it difficult for the public and senior leadership to get accurate information. The ISW report highlighted that these misleading reports are hindering Russian commanders' awareness of the battlefield situation and their ability to contain Ukrainian advances.
In the latest phase of Operation Vivaldi, Ukrainian forces have liberated 51 square kilometers of land and 176 square kilometers since the start of the offensive. Russian losses are estimated at 3,000 troops as of September 28.
