For more than a week, the Russian military has conducted intense missile and drone strikes on Kyiv and its immediate surroundings around the clock.  Between August 27 and September 3, at least 51 people were killed and nearly 100 injured in the Kyiv region.

"I saw the ground shaking, I saw my own blood flowing."  An MSF patient was wounded during a recent drone attack on a food warehouse. He sustained injuries to both legs and lacerations from shrapnel across his body. MSF is providing him with physiotherapy care and psychological support.

Almost constant air raid alerts and explosions are also taking a severe psychological toll.  "It's very draining. People are trying to carry on with their work, but this sense of exhaustion is very noticeable, and people are getting more and more tired."—Lesia Martseniuk, mental health supervisor.
