kyiv targeted by several airstrikes

A residential area in southern Kiev, Ukraine, was targeted by dozens of rockets on the night of Wednesday May 17 to Thursday May 18. All were shot by the Ukrainian army. “I heard the explosion, I was sleeping in my house, very close to here. I received a call telling me that a rocket had fallen on my garage. Luckily, it’s just sheet metal. The most important thing is that there is no victim“, says a man.

Other towns hit by strikes

Near a kindergarten, the windows of some buildings were blown out. Very early in the morning, the agents of the town hall began to clean up. “Look at the hole it made. I think it was a drone, or something similar. We will remove everything, including the sand, because there is a lot of ash and very young children are playing here.“, explains Nataliia Yuriivna, employee in charge of the clearance. Several missiles fell on other cities, in particular in Odessa, in the south. 29 cruise missiles and 4 Russian drones were shot down during the night, says Ukraine.
