The enemy continues to attack Kyiv. Over the past 24 hours, debris from shot-down drones fell in four districts of the capital — Holosiivskyi, Darnytskyi, Sviatoshynskyi and Solomianskyi. According to data from the Kyiv City Military Administration, cited by RBC-Ukraine, 14 people were injured as a result of the falling debris, including a 12-year-old girl. Some of the debris landed on roadways, while some fell on open areas, damaging several cars as well as one of the capital's residential buildings.

### Course of the attack and consequences in the capital

According to official data, the strikes on Kyiv involved drone attacks, with the UAVs being shot down by air defense systems. The debris scattered across several administrative districts, indicating the scale and duration of the air raid alert. The most serious consequences were recorded where debris landed in built-up blocks and transport arteries: cars and a residential building were damaged, and the number of injured rose to 14, including a minor.

### Incident in Darnytskyi district

A separate incident was recorded in Darnytskyi district, where drone debris fell near one of the stores. According to available information, medics hospitalized two injured people, and the explosion damaged a section of the road and several parked cars. This incident became part of the overall picture of the attack's consequences on the capital over the day.

### Fire in Holosiivskyi district

That same evening, an enemy drone struck a nine-story residential building in Holosiivskyi district. As a result, a fire broke out in the building, engulfing floors four through nine. Fifteen residents were evacuated from the burning building. The fire and the evacuation of residents became one of the most dangerous episodes of the nighttime strikes on the capital.

### Contradictory data

There are discrepancies between sources in the details. While the Kyiv City Military Administration (via RBC-Ukraine) cites four districts with debris — Holosiivskyi, Darnytskyi, Sviatoshynskyi and Solomianskyi — a number of other media outlets, in particular UNN, report on the attack's consequences in three districts of the capital. In addition, some publications (for example, Glavred), in the context of nighttime drone and missile strikes on Kyiv and the region, mention fatalities, whereas the main summary of the attack on Kyiv lists only 14 injured, with no mention of deaths. These inconsistencies in the number of districts and in the question of whether there were fatalities require additional verification, so the data is provided with caveats.

### Context

Attacks on Kyiv continue against the backdrop of a general escalation of strikes on Ukrainian cities. Capital authorities are calling on residents to follow safety rules during air raid alerts and to stay in shelters. Final data on the scale of destruction and the number of injured is being clarified as emergency services work at the debris fall sites.
