On the night of June 6, Russian forces launched a series of coordinated missile and drone strikes across multiple regions of Ukraine, resulting in at least four deaths, dozens of injuries, and significant damage to both civilian and industrial infrastructure. The attacks, stretching from the capital Kyiv to western regions like Lviv and Lutsk, underscore the continuing intensity of the conflict and its heavy toll on Ukraine’s cities and communities.
Kyiv
Kyiv suffered some of the worst consequences of the overnight assault. Vitali Klitschko, the mayor of Kyiv, reported on Telegram:
"One person was killed in the capital as a result of the enemy attack. According to the latest information from medics, 20 people have been injured. Sixteen of them have been hospitalized."
Later, he updated that the death toll had tragically risen to four, and that search and rescue operations were ongoing at several locations.
The attacks also caused major infrastructure disruptions. Over 2,100 households on Kyiv’s left bank lost electricity due to the strikes. Rail infrastructure was damaged as well, forcing rerouting of trains on the Trypillia route through Fastiv.
Poltava Region
In the Poltava region’s Kremenchuk district, Russian missile strikes damaged multiple administrative buildings, warehouses, and a café, as well as a private home hit by falling debris. Volodymyr Kohut, acting head of the Poltava Regional Military Administration, provided details on Telegram:
"As a result of today’s massive enemy attack in the Kremenchuk district, administrative buildings, warehouses of several enterprises, and a café were damaged."
He confirmed that fires sparked by the attack had been extinguished and reported that three people were injured—two treated on site and one hospitalized in moderate condition.

He emphasized that all critical infrastructure in the region remained operational.
