Russian forces are attacking Kyiv with jet-powered Shahed drones during the day on September 22, with explosions reported in the capital and air defense systems active, according to Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko. The Air Force had warned of drone movement toward Kyiv and the region. Due to the elevated threat, Kyiv City Express temporarily suspended local electric train service in both directions, urging passengers to stay 200 meters from railway infrastructure or in shelters until the alert ends. The attack follows a massive overnight assault on Ukraine involving dozens of missiles and 212 drones of various types. In Kyiv, a strike hit a multi-story building, injuring four people.
