A Russian drone strike on a food processing plant in Ukraine’s Brovary district, just outside Kyiv, has killed four civilians and injured seven others, while rescuers continue searching for two people believed trapped under rubble. The attack, which struck a facility producing dairy products for children, occurred at dawn on Friday, 5 June 2026, according to regional governor Mykola Kalashnyk .

Emergency services reported that the strike ignited a fire that destroyed part of the plant, complicating rescue efforts. Local authorities said the facility was producing essential food supplies, underscoring the civilian and humanitarian impact of the assault. “This is not just an attack on infrastructure—it is an attack on the most vulnerable,” Kalashnyk told reporters .

Across Ukraine, Russian strikes on Friday morning left at least seven people dead and 26 injured, regional authorities reported. In Kherson, a 75-year-old man was killed in a separate drone attack, while three children were injured in Konotop. In Zaporizhzhia, a woman died and 16 were wounded; another woman was killed in Dnipropetrovsk .

In the Odesa region, Russian drones targeted critical infrastructure overnight, damaging a facility and destroying a private home. In the Chernihiv region, a 64-year-old man was killed when his house was destroyed by a drone strike. In the Zhytomyr region, infrastructure and homes were damaged by shelling .

Ukraine’s air defences intercepted 198 Russian drones overnight, according to the General Staff, as part of a sustained campaign targeting both military and civilian sites. In the Sumy region, two civilians were killed and 14 injured over the past 24 hours .

Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces struck five Russian cargo vessels in the Sea of Azov overnight, killing five Azerbaijani crew members and injuring three. The attack targeted vessels in Taganrog Bay, according to reports .

The escalation comes as Moscow continues to deny targeting civilians, framing its actions as strikes against military logistics. Yet the pattern of attacks on food plants, homes, and critical infrastructure suggests a widening campaign with severe humanitarian consequences.
