The capital of Ukraine was the target of attacks by more than two dozen drones on Monday, local authorities reported, noting that a crucial point of infrastructure was reached.
The kyiv government said on the Telegram social network that more than 20 Iranian-made drones were detected in the airspace of the capital and at least 15 were shot down.
Authorities added that an infrastructure critical point had been reached, without elaborating.
It is not known if the attacks caused casualties.
Russia is targeting energy infrastructure as part of a strategy to try to leave the population without a way to stay warm.
On Friday, the Ukrainian capital was attacked on a large scale by Russia. Dozens of missiles were launched across the country, causing widespread power outages.
The military offensive launched on February 24 by Russia against Ukraine has already forced the displacement of more than 14 million people -6.5 million internally displaced persons and more than 7.8 million to European countries-, according to the most recent data from United Nations, which classifies this refugee crisis as the worst in Europe since World War II (1939-1945).
Right now, 17.7 million Ukrainians need humanitarian aid and 9.3 million need food aid and shelter.
The Russian invasion -justified by President Vladimir Putin with the need to “denazify” and demilitarize Ukraine for Russia’s security- was condemned by the international community in general, which has responded by sending arms to kyiv and imposing political and economic measures to Moscow. .
The United Nations has confirmed, since the beginning of the war, 6,755 civilian deaths and 10,607 wounded, stressing that these figures are far from reality.
