Ukraine repels a Russian drone attack in Kharkiv

Ukraine has said it has shot down all 29 Shahed kamikaze drones that Russia attacked Kharkiv on Monday morning.

Ukraine's Armed Forces said Russia also fired an Iskandar-M ballistic missile, but did not say whether it was fired.

The attack came a day after 11 people were killed by Russian strikes in Moscow's offensive in the Kharkiv region, according to officials.

Odesa, Mykolaiv, Poltava and Lviv regions were also targets of the drone attacks, according to the Armed Forces.

Sixteen drones crashed over the eastern Mykolaiv region, where a residential house was engulfed in flames by shrapnel, the region's governor said.

Three more drones were downed over the western Lviv region, where no damage was reported by local officials.

This spring, Russia has stepped up drone and missile attacks across Ukraine, causing extensive damage to its energy infrastructure.

Ukrainian forces shot down all 90 Shahed drones launched by Russia in the past week, Ukrainian military spokesman Dmytro Lykhoviy said./ Rel
