Kiev (EFE).- After several weeks of relative calm far from the front, Russia launched a new massive attack this past morning on ten different areas of Ukraine, including the capital, Kiev, in what some observers have described as the largest bombardment Russian from the start of the invasion.
The attack has left at least nine dead, five of them in the Lviv region, in the west of the country, another dead in Dnipropetrovsk, in the southeast, and another three in the Kherson region.
On the outskirts of the city of Kharkiv, locals gathered around a bombing crater on Thursday after a rocket hit the Pisochyn neighborhood. The country’s Defense Ministry confirmed that 34 cruise missiles were shot down. According to the Ukrainian nuclear operator Energoatom, the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) lost power as a result of missile strikes and was running on diesel generators.
