According to him, the enemy also hit Kropyvnytskyi with ballistics.

Also, on the evening of June 30, at approximately 7:30 p.m., the enemy launched "Iskander-K" cruise missiles at Kyiv.

It was possible to shoot down two missiles. Unfortunately, infrastructure was damaged as a result of falling debris. In general, we can see that the night was relatively calm. The enemy did not use its drones, but we continue to observe the presence of enemy tactical aircraft near Kharkiv and Kherson regions and other frontline cities.

Yevlash noted that the occupiers continued to drop glide bombs on populated areas.
