Russia attacked Ukraine overnight into September 27 with 170 Shahed, Gerbera and Parodiya decoy drones, 76 of them jet-powered, Ukraine's Air Force said. It said 147 were shot down or suppressed as of 07:30 Kyiv time, recorded hits at 18 locations and said the attack was continuing. In the Zaporizhzhia region, a strike on Komyshuvakha killed a man and injured four people, and a strike on a car in Novotavriiske killed a man and a woman, the regional military administration said. Kyiv authorities reported a hit on an office building in the Solomianskyi district, and port and civilian infrastructure in Kiliia, Odesa region, was struck without injuries.
