Kyiv raises death toll from September 1 Russian attack to nine

A 30-year-old man wounded during a Russian attack on Kyiv on September 1 has died in a hospital, according to the Kyiv City Military Administration. Local authorities had previously reported eight injured and eight killed in the strikes. The administration's announcement raises the death toll from the September 1 attack. Russian forces regularly target Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure using drones, missiles, guided bombs, and multiple launch rocket systems. Ukrainian authorities and international organizations classify these strikes as war crimes, stating they deliberately target life-support systems and healthcare facilities. Russia's leadership denies that its army intentionally strikes civilian infrastructure.
