— Waves of explosive-laden suicide drones struck Ukraine's capital and other cities as families were preparing to start their week early Monday, the blasts echoing across Kyiv, setting buildings ablaze and sending people scurrying to shelters.
News photographers caught images of at least one of the drones as it flew into Kyiv, with triangle-shaped wings and a pointed warhead clearly visible against the blue sky. Drones came in several waves and buzzed overhead with angry hums from their engines. "Russian terrorists once again attacked the energy infrastructure of Ukraine in three regions," Shmygal said, noting five strikes in Kyiv, in addition toi attacks in the Dnipropetrovsk and Sumy regions."Hundreds of settlements were cut off as a result of the attack," he said.
