Attacks on the Kyiv region peaked in the last days of summer
Russian attacks on the Kyiv region peaked in the final days of summer, when approximately 800 attack drones were directed at the region. The head of the Communications Department of the Ukrainian Air Force announced this on television.
According to him, massive drone attacks remain one of the key tools of the Russian military. They serve not only a military purpose but also a psychological one—to create a sense of panic among the population and undermine stability in Ukraine.
“Russia seeks to instill panic among the population in order to destabilize the situation in Ukraine. […] They want to cripple the economy and thereby influence our citizens,” stated the Air Force representative.
