One person was killed and another four were injured in a Russian attack with Iranian-made Shahed suicide drones on the city of Khmelnytskyi, Khmelnytskyi mayor Oleksandr Symchyshyn said on Feb. 27.

Three explosions were reported as a consequence of the attack, damaging a number of buildings.

According to the Ukraine's military General Staff, Russia launched 14 Shahed drones against Ukraine in the attack. 11 were intercepted.

Explosions were also reported around Kyiv itself, as well as Kyiv and Chernihiv oblasts – believed to have been a result of air defense systems.
