Kyiv Targeted in Overnight Attack
In the early hours of February 5, 2026, Russian occupation forces launched a drone attack on Kyiv. The Solomianskyi district sustained the most significant damage, with windows shattered in four residential buildings, a kindergarten, and an outbuilding damaged. The assault resulted in two civilian injuries: a 79-year-old woman was hospitalized, while an 89-year-old woman received on-site medical aid. This strike is part of a wider pattern of attacks on Ukrainian cities that has persisted for years.
The attack impacted four districts of the capital. In the Shevchenkivskyi district, an impact caused a fire in an office building, which was subsequently extinguished. In the Obolonskyi district, parked cars were set ablaze. The total number of injured persons reported across Kyiv remains two.
