Ukraine has come under heavy Russian bombardment overnight, with a child among three people killed in Kyiv, Ukrainian officials said early on Thursday.
Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the attack on Ukraine's capital was massive with military officials confirming at least 24 people had been injured.
A five-storey building collapsed in the Darnytski district while a fire was also reported in a high-rise residential building in the neighbouring Dnipro district.
The wave of missiles comes after more than 100,000 Ukrainian homes were left without power by the latest Russian drone attacks on energy infrastructure, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Wednesday.
In a post on Telegram, Tymur Tkachenko, the head of Kyiv's military administration, confirmed that the child killed was a 14-year-old girl, with at least five other children injured in the latest drone strikes.
He noted that more than 20 districts had been targeted, with significant damage to buildings, including a kindergarten.
Three and a half years after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, fighting on the ground shows no sign of abating.
The situation continues to evolve, with ongoing international efforts aimed at achieving a ceasefire.
