In Kyiv, an air raid alert was declared on the evening of December 12. The Russians launched kamikaze drones "Shahed" towards the capital.
This information is reported by RBK-Ukraine citing the Kyiv City Military Administration (KMVA), the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Telegram, and the air raid alert map.
The Air Forces warned about the movement of several enemy strike drones heading towards Kyiv from the east.
Residents of the capital were urged to stay in shelters and remain in safe locations until the air raid alert is lifted.
An air raid alert due to the threat of "Shaheds" has also been declared in several regions of Ukraine.
It should be noted that Russia has not used strike drones for its attacks since December 10. This marks a brief pause since the beginning of autumn, as the Russians have been launching "Shaheds" at Ukraine every night.
For detailed information on why Russia may not have launched "Shaheds" during these days, read the RBK-Ukraine article.
