Russia attacks Kyiv with ballistic missiles
Russia launched several ballistic missiles at Kyiv shortly after 11 p.m. on Aug. 5, Kyiv City Administration reported.
According to the message, all incoming missiles were intercepted by air defenses in and around the capital.
Initial assessments suggested the city suffered no damage in the attack.
Given that the three explosions were heard over Kyiv just minutes after air raid sirens were sounded, the Ukrainian capital was likely attacked by Iskander-M or Kn-23 ballistic missiles. North Korea previously supplied Russia with an undetermined number of Kn-23 missiles.
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.
