Oct. 5 (UPI) -- Russia launched some 50 missiles and 500 drones in an overnight attack in Ukraine, leaving five people dead, the President Volodymyr Zelensky, said.
The assault was aimed at the country's infrastructure, leaving thousands without power, the BBC reported.
The strikes on Liviv left four members of a family dead, and the attack in Zaporizhzhia killed one person.
The head of that region, Maksym Kozytskyi, said the area has not seen such a blitz since the Russian invasion began in 2022.
