Russian drones now attack Kyiv around the clock.

For years, the threat came mostly at night. Now, the air raid sirens in Kyiv do not stop. The shift from overnight strikes to near-constant drone attacks marks a dangerous new phase of the war for the city’s residents. The nonstop alerts have left people exhausted and on edge, according to local reports. The change in tactics means there is no longer a safe window to rest or return to normal routines. Civilians must stay ready to shelter at any hour, day or night. The psychological toll is immediate. Sleep is broken. Work is interrupted. The constant state of alert wears down even the most resilient. This is not a new weapon, but a new rhythm of war. And for the people of Kyiv, that rhythm is proving just as devastating as the explosions themselves.
