The Russian missiles sought out targets from the Lviv region in western Ukraine near Poland to Kharkiv in northeast Ukraine bordering Russia. The state energy company Ukrenergo reported emergency power outages in six regions. It often shuts down production during attacks as a precaution.

Ukrainian officials say Russia has launched a major ballistic and cruise missile attack on regions across Ukraine.

Moscow say Kyiv fired six US-made ATACMS ballistic missiles, six British Storm Shadow cruise missiles and at least 146 drones

Ukraine claimed Saturday to have struck one of Russia’s largest oil refineries in a drone attack, starting a fire at the facility more than 700 miles into Russian territory.

Ukraine fired six US-made ATACMS ballistic missiles, six British Storm Shadow cruise missiles and at least 146 drones into Russia in a mass attack, says Moscow. It threatened retaliation against the air strikes.

Russia launched dozens of missiles and drones at the Ukrainian energy sector, Kyiv said Wednesday, ramping up a months-long bombing campaign at a precarious moment of the war for Ukraine.The barrage came just one day after Kyiv said it had carried out its largest aerial attack of the war on Russian army factories and energy hubs hundreds of kilometres from the front line.

A major Russian attack on Ukraine is currently underway. The Operational Command of the Armed Forces has announced that standby pairs of fighter jets have been scrambled, and ground air defence and radar systems have reached the highest state of readiness.
