Note: The map and information provided is not 100% accurate and is based mostly on OSINT reports and analyses. There is a margin of error, so it should not be viewed as perfect. Additionally, some data on the map is generalised, as stated in the legend. It also does not include less significant weapons such as MLRS, short-range UAVs, and KAB glide-bombs (unless they hit major population centres).

Kyiv is under a massive Russian Geran-2 drone attack. Dozens of drones attacked the city, resulting in large fires breaking out. More info later once some of the targets have been clarified. A few more drones are flying in to Kyiv/Bucha, so the attack is not over yet.

Secondaries in Kyiv’s Solomyanskyi district after Geran drone strikes on medical and food supply facilities

Footage showing a Russian Kh-38 missile strike on the Volchansky Oil Extraction plant in western Vovchansk. This confirms that Russia’s attacks here earlier this month, after they crossed the Vovcha River, were repelled.

This large plant has long been Ukraine’s primary stronghold in the city - following the flattening and fall of the block of apartment buildings in the city centre known as the “citadel”.

Several cruise missiles are flying to Kyiv. Unclear if these are Iskander-Ks or Kh-101s.

3 groups of 2 missiles, all flying to Kyiv. About 2.5 minutes away if they don’t change course significantly.

The first pair is approaching Brovary, Kyiv Oblast, flying to Kyiv. Course unchanged.

Past Brovary to northeastern Kyiv. Approaching the city.

No maps right now sorry, I’m reporting from my phone

Over Kyiv, flying to Obolonskyi District, northern Kyiv.

Other missiles are following. Course unchanged through the northern suburbs.

All six missiles are over the city.

Missiles changed course to the southwest, flying to the southwestern suburbs past Obolonskyi District.

Multiple explosions in Kyiv. Missiles have disappeared.

Missiles had the characteristics of Iskander-Ks. Activity related to Iskander-ks was recorded earlier today and yesterday.

The usage of Kh-101s from a Tu-95MS/160 strategic bomber operating on a frequency not known to be combat-related is not ruled out, but seems unlikely.

Security camera footage shows 13 consecutive Iskander-K cruise missile impacts in Kyiv. It seems the groups contained more missiles than previously thought.

Additional scenes from Kyiv. This is the largest single Iskander-K attack since the beginning of the war.

2 Iskanders on Chernihiv Oblast.

Flying to Kyiv Oblast.

Disappeared around a minute ago. Probably electronic warfare.

There is significant damage to civilian infrastructure in Kyiv, although its unclear if any missiles or drones directly impacted residential buildings. The main target of the attack remains unknown, but I will make a more in-depth report on this and other targeted regions later.
