Fires erupt at warehouses following drone attacks by Russia in the Kyiv region
In a series of recent attacks, Russia has targeted various areas in Ukraine, causing damage and raising tensions.
On the night of 17-18 September, a warehouse in the Boryspil district of Kyiv Oblast was hit by drone strikes, resulting in a fire that is currently under control. The Russian military has admitted to carrying out the attack, but no specific details about the goods involved in the fire have been provided.
Simultaneously, a house in the Bucha district, also within Kyiv Oblast, caught fire as a result of the same Russian attack. Fire crews from the State Emergency Service are currently working at the scene, but no casualties have been reported. The exact cause of the house fire is not specified, but it is linked to the Russian attack.
Russian attacks on other regions, such as Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv oblasts, have resulted in five deaths and seven injuries.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian intelligence reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin has sought refuge in a bunker in Valdai due to the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war.
In response to the escalating situation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has advised Russians to leave Crimea while the Kerch Bridge is still functioning.
An air-raid warning was issued in Kyiv Oblast and other oblasts due to the threat of Russian drones. The all-clear has since been given.
Despite these developments, no further information about the current status of the Russian forces in the affected areas has been provided.
These attacks come as a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict and the continued threat posed by Russia to Ukraine's sovereignty and security.
