The Russian army attacked Kiev and its surroundings again this morning with Iranian-made “shah” drones that Ukraine says were shot down, said the head of the capital’s military administration, Serhiy Popko.
“In the early morning of May 3-4, the aggressor again attacked Kiev with ‘kamikaze drones’ and missiles, presumably of a ballistic type. The Ukrainian air defense forces shot down all enemy targets,” Popko said on the Telegram platform. .
“This is already the third time that the capital has been attacked in the first four days of May. Since the beginning of the year, our city has not suffered such an intensity of attacks,” the military wrote.
However, a new death toll from Wednesday’s Russian attacks on the Kherson region of southern Ukraine rose to 23, all civilians.
“During the Russian aggression, 23 people were killed, 46, including two children, were injured,” Oleksandr Prokudin, head of the military administration of the Kherson province, wrote on Telegram today.
Russia attacked the kyiv-controlled Kherson territories 98 times that day, firing 539 heavy artillery shells, rockets, tanks, drones and planes.
In the city of Kherson, occupied by Russia at the start of the war and recaptured by Ukrainian forces in November, the Russian army attacked the railway station area, two commercial establishments, a factory and a car depot, according to Prokudin.
