At least one person was killed and several others injured as Russia launched a heavy wave of drone and missile attacks on Ukraine overnight, Ukrainian officials said early on Tuesday.
In the southern port city of Odessa, one person was killed and at least four others were injured after a drone strike, Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov wrote on Telegram.
Attacks were also reported in the capital Kiev, where authorities said several people were injured. A dpa reporter described hearing heavy air defence fire during the night and Ukraine’s air force said ballistic missiles were also used.
The Kiev city military administration said damage was reported in six out of the capital’s 10 districts. At least one woman was injured, and the Kyiv Independent reported, citing local authorities, that several cars caught fire and buildings were damaged.
The attack came just a day after what Kiev said was the largest drone barrage since the start of the war, with nearly 500 Shahed drones used in overnight strikes. Several people were injured in that attack.
