"A series of Russian strikes across Ukraine overnight left at least two people dead and several others injured, Ukrainian officials reported. In Kyiv, falling debris from downed drones started fires on top of a 16-story residential building and two nine-story buildings, according to Mayor Vitali Klitschko. Tymur Tkachenko, the head of Kyiv's city military administration, said that among the dead was a one-year-old child whose body was uncovered from the rubble by rescuers."
"According to Reuters, witnesses heard a series of explosions shaking the Ukrainian capital city, which they believe were air defense units conducting operations. Explosions were also reported in the cities of Odesa, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kryvyi Rih. Poland, which is Ukraine's neighbor to the west, scrambled its fighter jets during Russia's air raid to protect its own air space. Russia currently occupies about 20% of Ukraine's territory."
