Disruptions to mobile communications were reported by public broadcaster Suspilne after a powerful explosion in the downtown Chernihiv shortly before midnight on Oct. 27.
According to Dmytro Bryzhynskyi, the head of the city's military administration, Chernihiv was attacked by a Russian drone overnight.
“A drone fell in the central part of the city. The damage is being verified,” he said, adding that emergency services are at the site of the strike.
The previous night, on Oct. 27, Russian forces launched around 15 Shahed attack drones at Chernihiv and its suburbs.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
