(Reuters) -Fragments from a downed Russian drone damaged trolley bus lines in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv early on Friday, the head of the city's military administration said.

Tymur Tkachenko, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said drone fragments had fallen in several locations, including on a road in central Shevchenkivsky district.

"The trolley bus network has been damaged," he wrote. "According to preliminary reports, there are no injuries."

Two air raid alerts were announced in quick succession after midnight in the city.

Mayor Vitali Klitschko said drone fragments had also fallen in another district.
