Air defense units are engaging incoming targets on the approaches to the Ukrainian capital.
That’s according to the municipal military administration, Ukrinform reports.
"The air raid alert remains in place! In the region, on the approaches to Kyiv, air defense is active," wrote the head of the administration, Serhiy Popko.
In most regions, including Kyiv, an air alert has been declared after a barrage of Russian attack drones was spotted in the Ukrainian airspace.
As reported, earlier this night, air defense forces were engaging enemy drones over Kyiv region.
