Social media footage captured a large explosion in the Ukrainian city of Vyshneve early on Monday (July 6).

Reuters confirmed the location as Vyshneve by the buildings and road layout seen in the videos which matched archive and satellite imagery. The date when the videos were filmed have been verified by official statements and media reports. Ukrainian state emergency services said that seven people were killed and 29 injured in the attack on Vyshneve on July 6. NASA’s FIRMS (NASA’s Global Fire Tracking Map) detected thermal activity in the area on July 6.

Russia hammered Ukraine with missiles and drones early on Monday, killing at least 20 people and exposing Kyiv's critical shortage of U.S.-made interceptors, officials said, just days after the deadliest attack on the Ukrainian capital this year.

Ukraine's military was unable to down any of the 23 ballistic missiles fired by Russia, according to air force data, reflecting its increasing vulnerability to Moscow's strikes as stocks of its prized Patriot missiles run out.
