Russian drone hits Ukraine intelligence headquarters in central Kyiv

A Russian drone struck the headquarters of Ukraine’s SBU security service in central Kyiv on Friday. The attack reportedly targeted the office of the agency's chief as international diplomatic efforts regarding the conflict were underway.

Ukrainian government facilities have historically seen limited damage from drone and missile strikes throughout the four-and-a-half-year duration of the war. This incident marks a notable event given the rarity of such direct hits on central administrative buildings in the capital.
