Russian drones target Kyiv gas stations, aiming to rattle civilians

Russian drone strikes targeted roadside gas stations in Kyiv on Friday, marking the second consecutive day of such attacks in the capital. The strikes resulted in two fatalities and four injuries, according to the city's mayor.

Ukrainian officials characterize the intensifying campaign against fuel infrastructure as a strategic effort by Moscow to rattle the civilian population. These attacks on urban gas stations have become more frequent in recent months, extending beyond frontline regions to impact major metropolitan areas.
