TL;DR Summary

Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, has been hit by missiles and drones repeatedly over the past few weeks, with most of the attacks occurring at night. Experts believe that Russia is changing its tactics to wear down Ukraine's air defences and is lashing out at Ukraine's civilian population in response to setbacks in the war.

Russia has increasingly focused its strikes on Kyiv, with 17 out of 21 reported Russian attacks on Ukraine in May targeting the capital.
