Russia 'staged the most massive attack with kamikaze drones,' Vitaly Klitschko, the mayor of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, said on Monday.
Russia launched a fresh barrage of strikes against Ukraine overnight, Kyiv said on Monday ahead of Russian Victory Day celebrations on Tuesday.
Ukrainian forces recorded a further 16 missile strikes overnight, the General Staff added, including in the northeastern Kharkiv area and in the southern regions of Kherson and Odesa. Ukraine's Operational Command South said Russia had launched Kh-22 missiles, although some did not reach their target, and emergency services were tackling fires.
He said"almost 60" Shahed drones were launched, with 36 of the unmanned aerial vehicles [UAVs] bound for the capital city."All were shot down by air defense forces," he said, before adding that"debris from several drones" had damaged a residential building on the outskirts of the city.
