On August 19th, Russia launched a ballistic missile strike on Chernihiv, a neighboring oblast to the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, resulting in seven fatalities, including a 6-year-old girl, and leaving 129 wounded.
The strike was directed at the city center's theater, which was concurrently hosting an exhibition of Ukrainian drones, an event Russian propaganda is manipulating to make it seem like a legitimate target.
