"The enemy attacked Kiev from the air for the second time this month," Serhiy Popko, head of the military administration of the capital Kiev region, said in a post on his Telegram channel.
This person affirmed that preliminary information shows that Ukraine's air defense system shot down all of Russia's Shahed drones before they reached their targets. There is currently no information about damage or casualties.

The Ukrainian Air Force said sirens sounded in the capital Kiev and in the eastern part of the capital early on July 11.
According to Reuters , witnesses heard an explosion similar to the sound of air defense systems intercepting targets.
The attack came hours before a NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, where NATO leaders are expected to discuss the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the alliance’s first comprehensive plan since the end of the Cold War to counter the threat of Russian aggression.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict has been going on for more than 500 days and has no end in sight. The two sides have been carrying out counterattacks against each other recently. Many peace proposals for the conflict have been put forward but have not yielded results due to differences in viewpoints between Russia and Ukraine.
The West continues to pump weapons into Ukraine to confront Russia. Russia believes that the decision of the US and NATO countries to supply tanks to Ukraine makes negotiations between Russia and Ukraine "meaningless".
Russia has repeatedly accused the US and its allies of deliberately trying to prolong the conflict, warning the West not to provide weapons to Ukraine, stressing that this would only escalate the conflict and cause unnecessary casualties without changing the situation of the war.
