Russia launched a drone attack on Kyiv late on October 15, prompting the mayor to tell people to stay in shelters. Mayor Vitali Klitschko wrote on Telegram that drones were headed toward the large Troieshchyna neighborhood on the outskirts of Kyiv. Serhiy Popko, head of Kyiv's military administration, said on Telegram that air-defense units were engaged in repelling the attack. There was no immediate information about potential damage or injuries. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said earlier that since the beginning of the day, 164 combat clashes had taken place at the front. The largest number of battles took place in the areas of Pokrovsk and Kharkiv.
