Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, was targeted once again by so-called kamikaze drones.
Russia unleashed 35 drones hitting critical infrastructure in and around Kyiv.
It was Moscow's third air attack on Kyiv in six days.
Kharkiv, Ukraine's second biggest city, was left without power for hours after Russia's latest attack on its energy infrastructure.
