Some already in the wider Kyiv region, and many more flying from the south and east.
Here's a view of the moment one drone hit Ukraine's caapital.
One injury has been announced so far.

Officials in Dnipro reveal an 8th person has received medical treatment following last night's drone attack on the city.
Cleaning up continues. Around 1000 windows were blown out and 5 schools and kindergartens were damaged as Russia's wave of terror remains unchecked.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.
For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

The remains of a 5th person were found this afternoon in Kharkiv.
I think rescuers believe two more bodies may yet be found, almost 3 days after the original Russian missile strike which destroyed the residential building.
