Every marker is a real place. Every number refers to a person.
In the 24 hours to the morning of 25 August, Russian strikes killed six people and wounded 104 across seven regions, by official Ukrainian counts. Two people were killed by a pre-dawn guided-bomb strike on the city of Zaporizhzhia. On Ukraine's Independence Day, a Russian strike drone hit a residential building in central Chernihiv, wounding 25 people, including two children, and a later drone strike on the town of Mena wounded 12 more, among them four teenagers. Single deaths were reported in Kherson's Korabelnyi district, in Izium in the Kharkiv region — where a strike also wounded a 13-year-old girl — and in Pavlohrad in the Dnipropetrovsk region, and a police officer died in Kherson of wounds from an earlier Russian drone strike. Shelling wounded 15 people across the Donetsk region and five in the border areas of the Sumy region. Air defences reported shooting down or suppressing 124 of some 150 drones and missiles launched overnight.
These are not just numbers, photographs, or cards. They are real people’s lives.This report preserves only facts confirmed by official sources.
Overnight into 25 August (from 18:00 on 24 August), Russia attacked Ukraine with about 152 means of aerial attack — one Iskander-M ballistic missile launched from Russia's Rostov region, one Kh-31P guided air-to-surface missile from the Bryansk region, and roughly 150 strike drones, including jet-powered Shahed and Gerbera drones and "Parodiya" decoys, launched from Oryol and Prymorsko-Akhtarsk in Russia and from occupied Donetsk region and Crimea. As of 09:00 on 25 August — a preliminary count the Air Force said was still being clarified as the attack continued — Ukrainian air defence had shot down or suppressed 124 of the drones. Impacts were recorded at 17 locations, with falling debris at seven more.
Verified by the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission (OHCHR): in July 2026 alone, at least 437 civilians were killed and 2,610 injured in Ukraine — the highest monthly civilian death toll since May 2022.
Official confirmation required. A report is included only after confirmation by a Ukrainian regional administration, the State Emergency Service (DSNS), police or another public authority. A link may lead to reputable reporting that directly attributes the facts to that official source. Casualty figures are official and time-stamped.
Curated, not exhaustive. Reporting delays, safety restrictions and limited information from occupied territories mean that some attacks will not appear. A report can also be delayed until an official account is available.
Finished editions, coarse locations. This is not a live map: each edition covers a completed 24-hour window, and a report appears only after Ukrainian authorities have made it public themselves. Exact coordinates appear only if the authorities have disclosed a location; otherwise the map shows the district or city. Casualty figures are preliminary, time-stamped (“as of …”) and corrected as official updates arrive.
Overlapping official windows. An oblast’s 24-hour tally can cover a strike this site already reported on its own the previous morning, hours before that tally was published. Each card keeps the figure its official source stated, so an edition’s daily total is the sum of the official reports it contains and can overlap the edition before it. Multi-day totals on the map subtract the overlap, so every victim is counted once.
No money passes through the app. Every “Support” button is a direct external link to an established fund (UNITED24, Superhumans, Voices of Children and others), matched to the kind of recovery or relief work involved. These links support each fund’s broader work and are not earmarked for the people or locations in a specific report.
“Support the project” is separate from the funds. The Ko-fi link in the footer covers only the project’s own running costs — hosting, subscriptions and maintenance. It is not a fundraiser for victims, it is not connected to any of the funds above, and the project is not run for profit.
