Ukraine says it repelled Russian missile attack on capital

SpaceWar.com reports: “Ukrainian forces said they thwarted a Russian missile attack on the capital Kyiv where air raid sirens sounded before dawn on Sunday.

‘This is the third ballistic missile attack on the capital in August with a clear interval of six days between each attack,’ the Kyiv City Military Administration posted on Telegram after the early morning barrage.

Simultaneous to the missile attack, drones were spotted heading to Kyiv.

‘All enemy drones were destroyed far outside the city,’ it added.

No damage or casualties were reported from the attack, which the administration said had ‘most likely used North Korean ballistic missiles of the KN-23 type’.
