Russia Attacks Ukraine with 236 Drones; 215 Intercepted — 4 Killed, 61 Injured Across Multiple Regions — Day 1,564

On the night of June 6–7 and during June 7, 2026 (Day 1,564), Russia launched 236 Shahed-type kamikaze drones against Ukraine; Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 215 of them (91% interception rate). The attacks killed at least 4 people and injured 61 across multiple regions. Confirmed fatalities included a minibus driver in Zaporizhzhia region and a man in Dnipropetrovsk region. The drone campaign on June 7 occurred simultaneously with Russia's Shahed attack on the Chornobyl nuclear fuel storage facility (approximately 02:00 local time) and came as Ukraine was conducting its own coordinated operations against Crimea fuel infrastructure. The night's attacks followed a daytime pattern of Russian artillery and aviation assaults across the front line. The 91% interception rate reflected Ukraine's increasingly proficient layered air defense system, though the volume of attacks — 272 drones June 5-6 followed by 236 drones June 6-7 — continued to strain interceptor stocks and occasionally breach defenses to strike civilian and industrial targets.
