KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Authorities in Ukraine’s capital say it’s being targeted in a new attack and a critical infrastructure point has been hit. The statement Monday morning came three days after what they described as one of Russia’s biggest attacks on Kyiv since the beginning of the war. The Kyiv city administration says more than 20 Iranian-made drones were detected over the capital’s air space and at least 15 were shot down. It added that a critical infrastructure point was hit, without giving more details. There are no immediate reports of casualties. Russia has been targeting energy infrastructure, including in Kyiv, as part of a strategy to try to freeze Ukrainians.
