A Russian drone strike destroys a warehouse in Kyiv used by Studio “Kvartal 95,” a production company co-founded by President Volodymyr Zelensky. The attack occurs on Wednesday, Sept. 16, according to the studio. The company says no employees are injured, but many items stored at the site—including sets, costumes, and other production props—are destroyed.
Kvartal 95 is known for producing television content that helped build Zelensky’s public profile before he became president. Outlets describe the studio’s role in creating popular Ukrainian programs, including a comedy series about a fictional president. While both sources focus on the damage to the warehouse, they differ in emphasis: one details the studio’s loss of long-stored production materials, while the other highlights the studio’s broader entertainment legacy and connection to Zelensky’s rise.
