Russian overnight attacks killed three people across Ukraine, including a woman in Kyiv. The renewed strikes, along with Ukrainian drone hits inside Russia, exposed mounting pressure on both sides' defences.

Russian forces attacked the Ukrainian capital Kyiv overnight killing at least eight people and injuring over three dozen, as drones and missiles struck residential buildings and started a fire in a hotel on a central boulevard.

Russian attacks across Ukraine killed 10 people and wounded dozens on Monday, authorities said, with strikes continuing into the afternoon as the death toll climbed.
