\*\*SBU displays wreckage of a “Geran” drone used by Russian forces to strike the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra\*\*

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has determined that Russia struck the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra using a \*\*Geran-2 unmanned aerial vehicle\*\*, the Russian version of the Iranian-made \*\*Shahed\*\* kamikaze drone.

This conclusion was reached based on an analysis of drone fragments recovered from the impact site.

According to the investigation, the enemy attacked the monastery complex at \*\*1:50 a.m. on June 15, 2026\*\*, during a massive strike on Ukraine’s capital.

During an inspection of the scene, SBU personnel discovered fragments of the fuselage and engine of the Russian kamikaze drone that struck the \*\*St. Stephen’s Chapel\*\* of the \*\*Dormition Cathedral\*\* on the grounds of the Lavra.

Examination of the drone wreckage revealed that some of its components had been manufactured in Russia within the \*\*Alabuga Special Economic Zone\*\*.

This was confirmed by markings found on fragments of the Russian drone.

As a result of the strike, the cathedral’s roof structures, domes, walls, and windows were damaged. No deaths or injuries were reported.

The blast wave also damaged nearby civilian infrastructure buildings in Kyiv’s Pechersk District.

SBU investigators have classified the attack as a \*\*war crime\*\* and have opened a criminal case under Part 1 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Comprehensive measures are being taken to establish all circumstances of the Russian attack and bring those responsible to justice.

The investigation and related measures are ongoing under the procedural supervision of the Kyiv City Prosecutor’s Office.
