All attacks by Russian troops on the night of February 26 were repulsed. 

All attacks by Russian troops in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities were repulsed by our military, said an adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine,  Mykhailo Podoliak, “They had to break through the defense that night. It was both landings and DRG, and attempts to enter the armored vehicles – all this was repulsed by our military in a completely professional manner,” he said. Speaking about the night battles in Kyiv, Podoliak noted that “if the Armed Forces worked on the outskirts of the city, the defense forces worked absolutely effectively in the city.” “People are protecting their homes. This is something that analysts at the Russian General Staff did not expect,” he said. According to him, sabotage and reconnaissance groups abandoned in Kyiv were captured and partially destroyed.
