On September 8, during a Russian attack on Kyiv, a Russian drone struck the building housing the “We Are Ukraine” TV channel. The strike partially destroyed the building, and five employees of the TV channel were injured.
“The main impact was on the newsroom and staff offices. Rescue workers and medical personnel are on the scene,” the TV channel said in a statement.
It is noted that this is not the first time the “We Are Ukraine” TV channel building has come under fire and sustained damage.
According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the fire has already been extinguished.

On September 8, Russian troops launched an attack with two “Shahed” drones on the Kyiv–Sumy train. The train had been stopped in advance, and passengers and crew members were evacuated following a warning from the “Ukrzaliznytsia” monitoring team.
As a reminder, fires broke out at industrial facilities in the Kyiv region due to the Russian Federation’s attack.
Russia also launched a massive attack on Kyiv, killing and wounding civilians.
Later, rescue workers showed the aftermath of the strikes on Kyiv.
