Ukrainian service personnel use searchlights as they search for drones in the sky over the city centre during a Russian drone strike, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Kyiv, on Sep 7, 2024. KYIV: Ukraine's security services said on Saturday they had struck a Russian ammunition factory in a border region, as Moscow's forces claimed yet another advance on the battlefield.
The attacks come after a week of intense Russian bombardments across Ukraine that killed at least 55 in the central city of Poltava, and seven in Lviv - hundreds of kilometres from the frontlines and close to Ukraine's western border with European Union and North Atlantic Treaty Organization members.
Russian anti-air defence systems"detected and neutralised a drone" early on Saturday morning over the western part of the region, under 150km from Ukraine, Voronezh governor Alexander Gusev wrote on Telegram. Ukraine's air force said Russia fired 67 drones at the country overnight, adding that it shot down 58 of them."There are almost no nights when Russian attack drones do not attack the territory of Ukraine. And today was another night, massive drone attack," the Kyiv city administration said in a social media post on Saturday.
