Around a dozen of the devastating Shahed drones were shot out of the sky, Kyiv's military officials confirmed. Yesterday marked day three of Russia's sustained bombardment of the capital - which coincided with the end of NATO's summit in Lithuania, a staunch Ukraine supporter. While searching through the debris of a residential building in Podilsky district in the north of the city, one body was found. Evidence of attacks was spotted in four other districts, with at least two people being sent to hospital with shrapnel wounds. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russia fired a total of 20 drones, mostly at the Kyiv region, and that all 20 were shot down. The Ukrainian military also intercepted two cruise missiles. The statement also reported that one ballistic missile was not intercepted, although it did not explain what damage the missile caused. The government of the region of Khmelnytskyi in western Ukraine reported that cruise missile was intercepted over the region, and reported no casualties. "We appreciate the meticulous work of Ukraine's air defense forces," the regional administration wrote on Telegram. Rescuers extinguished a fire in a 16-story building, as well as in a non-residential building, according to the Interior Ministry. Debris also "damaged the facade" of a 25-story apartment building, the ministry wrote. Volodymyr Motus, a 22-year-old resident of the 25-story building, carefully picked his way across the floor a destroyed apartment, his footsteps accompanied by the sound of shattered glass. The mangled furniture was coated in a thick layer of dust. "I was in my apartment and suddenly I heard a boom, that's all. Then the alarm went off and I went down to the shelter."){kind=link}
