Russian forces are attempting to strike critical infrastructure in Kyiv and the surrounding region with attack drones and a potential ballistic missile threat on the morning of March 16, Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, reported on Telegram.
“The enemy is targeting infrastructure in Kyiv Oblast and Kyiv [city],” Kovalenko wrote.
Ukraine’s Air Force warned of a group of attack drones and a missile danger to the capital and oblast, with air defenses active.
Multiple explosions were heard in Kyiv early on March 16. Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko reported debris from downed targets falling in the city center.
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.
