'Irreparable Tragedy' — Mother and Two Children Killed in Russian Drone Strike on Kyiv Oblast
A Russian drone struck a residential house in the village of Hlevakha, Fastiv district, Kyiv Oblast, at 22:37 on September 19, killing a 39-year-old woman and two young children — a 2-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl — and injuring another woman. Kyiv Regional Military Administration head Tymur Tkachenko called it 'an irreparable tragedy,' saying 'there are no words to express the pain of this loss.' Air raid alerts continued almost uninterrupted through the day as Russian forces repeatedly struck the region with drones, damaging at least 31 sites across five districts, with Fastiv district hit hardest (24 sites, including homes, industrial and utility buildings, and vehicles).
