Kyiv strikes (2022–present)

Diagram of air raid sirens in Kyiv in 2023

Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine with around 2,950,000 residents, has been frequently targeted by the Russian Armed Forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Overview

An attempt to capture the city was made in February–April 2022, but the Russian forces were repelled. Since then attacks have been carried remotely through airstrikes. Since October 2022 Kyiv has been occasionally attacked by Iranian-made drones on Russian service.[1] From the start of the invasion on 24 February 2022 until 28 May 2023, the air raid siren has been on in Kyiv for a total 887 hours[2] (or around 36 days). Kyiv has 1,078 bomb shelters, but in June 2023 a government commission found that only half of them are usable.[3]
