Two ballistic missiles are reportedly heading toward Boryspil, the international airport serving Kyiv, according to a report. No details on interceptions, impacts, or potential casualties are yet available.
At 01:34 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported radar screens indicating ballistic missiles were heading toward Kyiv. Shortly after, a specific report indicated two ballistic missiles were en route to Boryspil International Airport, the primary airport serving the Ukrainian capital. The report is unverified, and no details on interceptions, impacts, or casualties are yet available. This new threat follows a large-scale Russian missile attack on Kyiv overnight Wednesday, which killed at least 15 people and wounded 27, according to journalist Asaf Rozentzweig (N12).
The Zioneer's coverage of the overnight attack began at 03:13 Jerusalem on Wednesday, August 5, when footage surfaced showing 11 consecutive impacts of Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles in Kyiv, with no visible air defense activity. The footage, attributed to the Intel Cams OSINT channel on YouTube, was not independently verified by The Zioneer but corroborated earlier reports of a heavy barrage. At the same time, The Zioneer reported a casualty toll of at least 15 killed and 27 wounded, citing N12 journalist Asaf Rozentzweig. Radar screens also indicated additional ballistic missiles heading toward Kyiv at that time.
The Zioneer has documented repeated Russian ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv. On Saturday, August 1, 2026, 25 ballistic missiles struck the capital in under an hour, killing nine, as The Zioneer reported. Earlier, on July 11, eight ballistic missiles struck Kyiv, causing multiple explosions. The use of Iskander-M and Zircon missiles has been a hallmark of these barrages, often designed to overwhelm air defenses.
The current report of two missiles heading toward Boryspil remains unverified. It is not known whether the missiles were intercepted, diverted, or struck their target. No casualties or damage have been reported. Additionally, the full casualty count from the overnight attack on Wednesday may still rise as rescue operations continue.
