Russia launched several waves of drones targeting Kyiv early on Monday, with air defence units successfully defending the city during the attack which lasted over five hours, Ukraine's military said.

That night, on September 30, the Russians carried out another massive attack with attack drones on the Kyiv region. The wreckage of the downed targets was recorded in six districts of the region, according to Ruslan Kravchenko,

The Ukrainian air force says Russia fired missiles and drones at 11 regions of Ukraine. It was the 33rd consecutive night of aerial attacks behind the front line and set a new monthly record of drone barrages.
