Vice Prime Minister for the Restoration of Ukraine – Minister for Communities and Territories Development Oleksiy Kuleba reported this.
“More than 450 drones and dozens of missiles hit facilities that ensure the functioning of the country. There is damage to energy networks and utility systems in Kyiv, Kyiv, Kharkiv, Sumy, Poltava, Cherkasy, Chernihiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Odessa, Kirovohrad, and Kherson regions,” the message reads.
