Explosions occurred in Kyiv and the Kyiv region in Ukraine, and the air defense system was activated. This was announced on Thursday, February 15, in the Kyiv Regional Military Administration in the Telegram channel.
According to the air raid map of the Ukrainian Ministry of Digital Transformation, an air alert was declared throughout Ukraine.
“Explosions in the city. Air defense is working. Don’t leave your shelters!” wrote the mayor of Kyiv Vitaliy Klitschko in his Telegram channel.
The Russian Ministry of Defense did not comment on the information about the explosions.
Earlier that day, it became known that the explosions occurred in the Kharkov region in northeastern Ukraine.
The day before, on February 14, explosions were reported in the Ukrainian-controlled city of Kherson. Before this, on February 13, it became known that the sounds of explosions were heard in Odessa. It was clarified that air defense systems were working. In addition, on February 12, explosions occurred in the Dnieper (formerly Dnepropetrovsk).
Russian troops in October 2022 began to strike military command and control facilities and related energy and communications facilities in Ukraine. As Russian President Vladimir Putin explained, this was a response to the terrorist actions of the Kyiv regime, in particular on the Crimean Bridge.
The special operation to protect Donbass, the beginning of which Vladimir Putin announced on February 24, 2022, continues. The decision to hold it was made against the backdrop of an aggravation of the situation in the region due to shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
