Georgiy Sudakov: Ukraine Midfielder Says Kyiv Apartment Severely Damaged in Russian Drone Attack
Russian drone and missile strikes damaged multiple apartment buildings in Kyiv, including that of footballer Heorhiy Sudakov, injuring over 20 people during the largest air attack of the war.
- On September 7, 2025, Russian forces launched their largest air attack of the war on Kyiv, damaging the apartment of Ukraine midfielder Heorhiy Sudakov while his wife, child, and mother were at home.
- The attack involved coordinated strikes using 805 drones and 13 missiles targeting military-industrial and transport infrastructure, amid ongoing conflict since Russia recognised separatist regions in 2022.
- Sudakov, who is on international duty and recently transferred on loan from Shakhtar Donetsk to Benfica, shared videos showing extensive damage with blackened walls, broken windows, and scattered debris in Kyiv's Sviatoshynskyi district.
- Ukraine's air force reported the strikes killed four people, including an infant, and injured 44 others, while Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed partial destruction of residential buildings and fires from falling drone debris.
- The strikes highlighted the continuing hardship faced by Ukrainians, with Sudakov expressing the psychological toll of the war as his family remains in Ukraine despite his career abroad.
