Ukrainian emergency services reported fires in five districts of the capital, one fatality and eight people injured. Russian sources claim that industrial and defence facilities were hit, but there is currently no official confirmation of these claims.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<div class=\"summary-title\">Briefly about the main points<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Russian sources reported that Kyiv had been struck by \u00abIskander\u00bb and \u00abZircon\u00bb missiles during the night of 19 July<\/li>\n<li>Ukrainian authorities have reported fires in five districts of the capital and damage to buildings<\/li>\n<li>One person was killed and eight others were injured as a result of the attack<\/li>\n<li>Russia claims to have carried out strikes on the Odesa region and on energy infrastructure in the Chernihiv and Mykolaiv regions<\/li>\n<li>There is as yet no confirmation that specific facilities have been hit; data from the Ukrainian Air Force is awaited<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Attacks on industrial sites in Kyiv, according to Russia\u2019s account<\/h2>\n<p>Russian sources have reported a massive <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/viyna\/nichna-ataka-kiyev-zagibla-postrazhdali-19-07\/\">missile strike on Kyiv<\/a> involving the use of \u00abIskander\u00bb and \u00abZircon\u00bb missiles. In particular, mention is made of the strike on the \u00abMeridian\u00bb radio-electronics plant named after S. P. Korolyov, the \u00abArtem\u00bb plant, as well as areas associated with the Kyiv Central Design Bureau for Valve Manufacturing and the \u00abKyivkhimvolokno\u00bb enterprise. At the same time, Ukrainian official sources have not confirmed the strikes on specific factories, and this information requires independent verification.<\/p>\n<h2>The impact on residential areas and the actions taken by the State Emergency Service<\/h2>\n<p>As a result of the missile strikes in Kyiv, the Dniprovskyi, Desnianskyi, Solomianskyi, Shevchenkivskyi and Sviatoshynskyi districts were affected. The State Emergency Service reported fires in office, residential and non-residential buildings, damage to high-rise blocks and vehicles catching fire. A fatality was found in the Shevchenkivskyi district, whilst in the Sviatoshynskyi district, rescue workers saved four residents. In total, one person died and a further eight were injured.<\/p>\n<h2>Attacks on the Odesa region and the energy infrastructure of other regions<\/h2>\n<p>Russian sources have also reported ballistic strikes on infrastructure in the areas around the ports of Pivdennyi and Chornomorsk in the Odesa region. Official figures on the damage are expected from the Ukrainian authorities. Following strikes on energy infrastructure in Chernihiv, power cuts have been reported. Drones attacked an energy facility in Snigurivka, Mykolaiv Oblast, and also carried out attacks on Sumy and Zaporizhzhia, where a fire broke out on the premises of one of the enterprises.<\/p>\n<h2>The information context and expectations regarding official reports<\/h2>\n<p>The full picture of the weapons used and the consequences of the missile strikes will be known following the official report from the Ukrainian Air Force. Russia\u2019s claims regarding the destruction of specific defence facilities should be viewed in the context of information warfare, as during wartime, confirmation of targets and results is often lacking or difficult to verify.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0423 \u043d\u0456\u0447 \u043d\u0430 19 \u043b\u0438\u043f\u043d\u044f \u0420\u043e\u0441\u0456\u044f
