Ukrainian President Voloydmyr Zelensky said the country’s air defense shot down “all 13” drones Russian forces used in a barrage targeting Kyiv on Wednesday.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said two buildings in the central Shevchenkivskyi district had been damaged but that there were no casualties, according to Reuters. The Ukrainian military identified the drones as the Iranian-made Shahed drones, which Russia has acquired hundreds of from Iran in recent months as its stockpiles have diminished.

One of the Iranian drones had a message written on it: “For Ryazan!!!” which is an apparent call for revenge following the strikes last week at a couple of military airstrips, one of which occurred in the Ryazan region.
