Waves of drone and missile attacks targeted Kyiv overnight into Friday in the largest aerial attack since Russia's invasion of Ukraine began more than three years ago, injuring 23 people and inflicting severe damage across multiple districts of the capital in a seven-hour onslaught.

Ukraine's Defense Forces struck a plant producing warheads for Shahed UAVs. The enterprise is located in the city of Sergiev Posad, Moscow region of Russia, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Unmanned Systems Forces report.

As part of efforts to reduce the Russians' ability to launch airstrikes, units of the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces, in cooperation with other components of the defence forces, struck the Scientific Research Institute of Applied Chemistry in Russia's Moscow Oblast on 4 July.
