Ukraine’s military says to have destroyed 37 Russian drones since Sunday evening, accounting for around 85 percent of aircraft participating in the strikes.
Russian drone strikes killed at least three civilians in central Kyiv early Monday.
The airstrikes came exactly one week after Russia unleashed its heaviest aerial bombardment on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities since the start of the war.
Several explosions rocked the central Shevchenkivskyi district of Ukraine’s capital on Monday, according to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, damaging a number of residential buildings.
