Russian forces launched 160 drones, including 110 jet-powered drones, against Ukraine from multiple directions, causing power outages in Kyiv City.

Russian forces conducted a series of drone strikes against Ukraine on the night of October 9 to 10, causing power outages that stopped public transport in much of Kyiv City.

The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russian forces launched 160 Shahed-type drones (including 110 jet-powered drones), Gerbera-type strike drones, and Parodiya-type decoy drones from the directions of Oryol and Kursk cities; Shatalovo, Smolensk Oblast; Millerovo, Rostov Oblast; Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Krasnodar Krai; occupied Donetsk City; and occupied Hvardiiske, Crimea.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy strongly criticised the US administration's decision. He called it a 'weak decision' that will only help finance the Kremlin's war and make Putin bolder.

Drone debris fell onto an area near a business center in the Dniprovskyi district, setting a car on fire.

Russia, meanwhile, launched a drone attack followed by a missile strike on Kyiv on Oct. 10, also targeting Ukrainian energy facilities.

Russian drone strikes targeting energy infrastructure in the Kyiv region knocked out power across swathes of Ukraine’s capital on Saturday, Oct. 10.

Even after US President Donald Trump unilaterally declared an 'energy ceasefire' between Moscow and Kyiv last week, Russia continued its methodical and destructive strikes on the Ukrainian energy system, especially in Kyiv.

Due to an attack on energy facilities in Kyiv and the Kyiv region, part of the region was left without power.

According to DTEK, there are new widespread power outages in Kyiv due to shelling.

Earlier, there were reports of an emergency power outage in Pivdenna Borshchahivka due to an attack by the Russian Federation.
