Air defense forces located and destroyed all incoming objects the enemy had launched trying to attack Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv.

That’s according to the Kyiv City Military Administration, Ukrinform reports.

"Another air strike on Kyiv is the 13th in a row since May-start! As always, it was a night attack. This time it was the Tu-95MS strategic bombers, who launched what likely was the Kh-101/555 cruise missiles, from the Caspian region," said the chief of the Kyiv City Military Administration, Serhiy Popko.

According to tentative reports, all enemy targets were located and destroyed in Kyiv's airspace.
