Russia launched more than 20 drone attacks on the Kyiv region overnight, killing at least three civilians and burying several more beneath the rubble, local officials have reported. Two multistorey apartment blocks and an educational building were damaged by the attacks on the city of Rzhyshchiv, which were carried out with Iranian Shahed-136 kamikaze drones, as roughly 200 people were evacuated from the area and more than a dozen rushed to hospital. The Kyiv regional military administration reported on its Telegram channel that a “civilian object” had been damaged and that rescuers were still working at the scene. The Ukrainian military said it had shot down 16 out of 21 Iranian drones.
