On Wednesday, September 30, 2026, Russian occupation forces carried out another targeted drone strike on the civilian infrastructure of the Kyiv region. The enemy targeted a supermarket located in the Obukhiv district. As a result of a direct hit by a kamikaze drone, the retail building suffered significant damage, after which a massive fire broke out at the scene, threatening to spread to neighboring structures.
Extinguishing the Aftermath of the Strike
Units of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine promptly arrived at the scene. Thanks to the coordinated and professional actions of the rescuers, the fire in the supermarket building was quickly localized and completely extinguished, preventing the widespread propagation of the fire. Rescue operations were complicated by the threat of repeated air attacks, but emergency services performed their duties routinely, minimizing destruction.
Condition of Victims and Medical Assistance

Large-Scale Night Shelling of the Region
This incident was part of a large-scale and combined air attack launched by the aggressor country against Kyiv and the region on the night of September 30, 2026. The enemy used a wide arsenal of weapons, including attack UAVs and ballistic missiles. Serious power supply disruptions were recorded in the capital and the region, private residential houses, warehouses, and shops were on fire, and there are dead and wounded among the civilian population.
