At least three people killed in Russian attacks on Ukraine

"Russia used an Iskander-M ballistic missile and 146 drones in its attacks, according to Ukraine's air force. A Russian air attack has killed two people in Kyiv region's Bilohorodska community, and a drone attack killed another person in central Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, according to local authorities. The deadly attacks came overnight on Wednesday, just hours after a deadly drone attack on a commuter train in northeastern Ukraine's Kharkiv an incident denounced as terrorism by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy."

"Also on Wednesday, three people were injured in a Russian drone attack on port infrastructure in the southern region of Odesa, according to Governor Oleh Kiper. In the capital, Kyiv, a 17-storey residential building was hit, causing minor damage to the roof and damaging windows on the upper floors, emergency services said. Several residential buildings in Kyiv remain without power due to earlier Russian attacks on the country's energy grid."

"On Tuesday night, five people were confirmed dead and several others injured after a Russian drone hit a passenger train near Kharkiv city, Al Jazeera's Audrey Macalpine said, reporting from Kyiv. This attack has struck fears among Ukrainians, Macalpine said, noting that the train was carrying about 100 passengers. With the country's airspace closed, people rely heavily on trains as a means of moving around the country, she said. And this is a culmination of weeks of threats on the security of the train system."
