Russia has carried out one of the largest aerial assaults on Ukraine, hitting energy infrastructure across the country and resulting in at least five fatalities and significant destruction. The attacks were reported in various major cities, including Odesa, Dnipro, and Rivne, with Kyiv experiencing the heaviest attack in three months. Residents sought refuge in the metro network as strikes intensified.
Tragically, casualties were reported, with two individuals losing their lives in a drone strike in the Mykolaiv region, and two more fatalities in Odesa. Additionally, a woman was killed in her car in the Lviv region. The strikes led to power outages in multiple regions, with Odesa facing disruptions to heating, water, and electricity supplies, forcing hospitals to rely on generators.
