Russian attacks kill one in Kyiv and cut power to 350,000 near Dnipro

Late on Oct.

29, Russian attacks killed one person in Kyiv and caused fires and damage to buildings.

Missiles struck warehouses and other sites in the Ukrainian capital, while falling debris damaged a building and cars.

Separately, strikes on energy infrastructure cut power to up to 350,000 people in and around Dnipro, southwest of Kyiv.

Emergency responders are working to restore electricity.

The outages come as Russia continues attacks on Ukraine’s energy facilities ahead of the fifth winter of its full-scale invasion.

Kyiv has also faced repeated missile attacks in recent weeks, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky saying Russia has launched more than 100 ballistic missiles at the capital and surrounding region since Oct.

14.

The strikes followed a deadly attack on Dnipro’s railway station earlier on Oct.

29, where authorities said at least 14 people were killed and at least 14 wounded.
