Video: In the Kyiv region, a downed drone fell onto the road in front of a car
A dashcam video has been posted online showing the moment an enemy “Shahed”-type UAV was shot down by air defense forces during an airstrike on the Kyiv region. Debris from the drone burst into flames in midair and fell onto the roadway, where traffic was moving at the time.
The impact with the asphalt caused an explosion accompanied by heavy smoke. The driver of a car, who was a few meters away from the crash site, reacted instantly and changed direction, managing to avoid the explosion.
This was reported by “Glavkom,” citing monitoring channels.

As a reminder, the Russians used a Shahed drone to deliberately strike a passenger train in the Odesa region, resulting in fatalities.
The State Emergency Service and the Odesa Regional Military Administration released photos of the locomotive damaged by the Russian attack. The images show the condition of the train after the strike.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Russian forces struck a passenger train in the Odesa region. According to him, there were 340 passengers on board at the time of the attack, and the train engineer and his assistant were killed.
