Russia launched a major missile and drone attack on Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv, Dnipro and Kharkiv, early Tuesday, killing at least nine people and wounding dozens.
This comes after days of warnings that Moscow was planning a major attack.
Death toll likely to rise
At least five people were killed and 25 injured in Dnipro, in eastern Ukraine, regional governor Oleksandr Hanzha said on Telegram.
The injured were hospitalized and are reported to be in moderate condition, he said, sharing pictures of heavily damaged residential buildings and burnt vehicles.
