Between the Russian attacks that make international headlines, Kyiv is hit almost every hour.From October 6 to 13, Frontsight documented every Russian strike on the Ukrainian capital we could reach. Drones hit apartment blocks, warehouses, a school playground and a store. Ballistic missiles struck power plants until city officials announced that all of Kyiv's power generation had been destroyed. The metro went dark for the first time in nine months. Then the early warnings stopped. Without the advance notice Ukraine had relied on from US intelligence, missiles arrived with air raid alarms sounding just one minute before impact.At least 14 civilians were killed and dozens more were injured over the week. The attacks we covered are likely less than half of the total. Strikes on utilities and infrastructure are heavily censored, and most never make the news.CREDITSReporting, images and story: Robert Spangle, Louis Lemaire-SicreVideo edited by Yevhen ”Kim” Tytorenko
