Russian forces struck Pavlohrad on 14 September, killing one and injuring five, days after a shopping centre attack killed five. The strike is part of a pattern of intensified attacks on Ukrainian cities far from the front line.
Russian missile and drone strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian regions between late August and mid-September 2026 killed at least six civilians and injured dozens, hitting residential buildings and infrastructure. The attacks underscore Russia's strategy of attrition against urban centres and highlight Ukraine's need for more air defence.
Russian forces have hit warehouses, a Coca-Cola plant, and railway stations across Ukraine over three weeks, disrupting retail supply chains and train schedules. While casualties remain low due to sheltering, the campaign appears aimed at crippling Ukraine's civilian logistics.
Russian forces struck Zaporizhstal steelworks again on 27 August, days after killing seven workers. The Khortytsia vodka factory was destroyed, and a residential area hit the next day. Ukraine's steel output halved in August as industrial infrastructure suffers systematic damage.
Russian forces have struck a Coca-Cola plant and multiple retail warehouses in Kyiv Oblast, damaging AGROMAT, Varus, and ATB facilities.

On 28 August, a Russian missile strike on a munitions depot in Myla, Kyiv Oblast, killed 38 and injured 52, including 5 children. The attack, the second such strike near Kyiv in two months, damaged 300 structures. Days later, Russian strikes caused power outages in five oblasts, compounding Ukraine's energy woes.
Russian strikes between 29 and 31 August 2026 damaged warehouses of AGROMAT, Varus, and ATB in Kyiv Oblast and the capital. No staff were injured, but operations and supply chains are disrupted.
Russian forces struck the Zaporizhstal steelworks for the second time in three weeks on 27 August, hitting the same location where seven workers died. The same day, the Khortytsia vodka factory was destroyed. Across Zaporizhzhia Oblast, 923 strikes in one day killed two and injured three.
On 27 August, Russian forces struck the Zaporizhstal steelworks for the second time in two weeks, hitting the same location as a deadly 11 August attack. In the same city, a strike destroyed the Khortytsia vodka factory, damaging a KOLO warehouse. The attacks signal a deliberate campaign against industrial infrastructure.
