Every marker is a real place. Every number refers to a person.
In the 24 hours to the morning of 28 August, Russian strikes across Ukraine killed nine people and wounded 55, by official Ukrainian counts. In Kharkiv, a jet-powered drone hit a shopping centre in the Osnovianskyi district, killing a 26-year-old man and wounding five, while a 38-year-old woman was killed in Zmiiv. Two people were killed in the Synelnykove district of the Dnipropetrovsk region, and two more in the Sumy region — a woman in the Seredyna-Buda hromada and a man killed by a guided bomb in the cab of a truck in Sumy. One person was killed in Zaporizhzhia, one in Malotaranivka in the Donetsk region, and a 61-year-old man died after a drone strike in central Kherson. In Kyiv, a morning drone attack wounded four people and damaged a school. Overnight, air defences said they downed or suppressed 137 of 164 drones in a drones-only wave; by morning a Russian drone had struck a Zaporizhzhia hypermarket yet again, wounding four. Russian drones also set fire to a warehouse at an agricultural enterprise in the Mykolaiv region.
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 28 August (from 18:00 on 27 August), Ukraine's Air Force reported 137 of 164 Russian strike drones — Shahed (about half jet-powered), Gerbera and "Parodiya" decoys, launched from Oryol, Bryansk and Millerovo in Russia, occupied Donetsk and Hvardiiske in occupied Crimea — shot down or suppressed as of 09:00 Kyiv time, with strikes recorded at 16 locations and falling debris at four more; no missiles were reported in this wave. The figures are preliminary — the Air Force said the attack was still under way, with about 10 drones still in the air, when it posted.
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.
