Explosions were heard in Kyiv on July 3 as Russia launched a wave of drones across Ukraine. Tymur Tkachenko, head of the Kyiv City Military Administration, confirmed that one drone was shot down over the capital.

For months the talk in Kyiv was of a much-anticipated Russian offensive that would aim to gobble up more of Ukraine’s eastern regions. So far, it’s been underwhelming – but the Russians have made some gains and vastly reinforced their troop numbers in some areas.
