Kyiv sounds drone alert, orders residents into shelters
Kyiv's military administration activated a drone alert across the Ukrainian capital and told the public to head for shelters in a Telegram post. Officials declared a yellow alert, which keeps some public services running. It lands as drone scares ripple beyond Ukraine's borders, including a shelter-in-place order at a US air base in England.

The Kyiv City Military Administration announced a drone alert was activated in the Ukrainian capital. In a Telegram post, the office urged the public to retreat to shelters. Officials declared a yellow alert, meaning certain public services were still allowed to operate.
Drone worries aren't confined to Ukraine. The United States Air Force responded to what a spokesperson called 'suspected unauthorized drone activity' over RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, England, on Friday, according to Sky News, which cited a copy of an alert. Military personnel were told to 'shelter in place.' The spokesperson said no personnel, aircraft or infrastructure were affected.
At least 12 US Air Force aircraft had departed from the nearby RAF Mildenhall base earlier in the week, following reported security threats from Iran.
Separately, European leaders kept pressing on Ukraine diplomacy. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen welcomed 'the renewed momentum to move things forward to a just and lasting peace,' while warning the path 'will not be easy.' She said the Commission will 'soon' prepare a 22nd sanctions package against Moscow, arguing that 'the best way to get Russia to the table is to keep up our support for Ukraine and to keep maximum pressure on Russia.'
