On the night of October 30, Russian forces attacked Kyiv with drones. Drone strikes led to falling debris in the Solomianskyi district.

This was reported by Head of Kyiv's Military Administration, Serhiy Popko.

The drone attack in Solomianskyi district caused a fire in several apartments of a multi-story residential building. Eighteen people were evacuated from the building, and nine were injured, including a child.

Additionally, a fire broke out in an administrative building in this area, and a gas distribution point lost its seal, though the fire was later extinguished.

The official highlighted that this was the 19th airstrike on Kyiv in October alone, with the air raid alert lasting over two hours.

"Russian drones approached the capital from various directions at different altitudes. Enemy drones were detected and neutralized in time by air defense forces," Popko added.
