Explosions rocked Kyiv on Monday as dozens of armed drones unleashed by Russian forces set buildings ablaze, killed at least four people and sent residents scrambling for cover.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said most of the 28 drones targeting Kyiv were shot down, but that explosions were heard across the city, including residential buildings that had rescuers dismantling the debris in search of survivors and victims. Four deaths were reported at one residential building alone, Klitschko said.

Klitschko said the drones were Iranian-made Shaheds, which Russia has rebranded as Geran-2 drones. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani on Monday denied that Iran provided drones to Russia.

The attack came a week after Russia’s massive barrage of missile strikes in Kyiv and other major cities across Ukraine killed at least 20 people. That assault was the first to reach Kyiv in four months. “Enemies can attack our cities, but they won't break us,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a video address.
