"Russia said at least 24 people, including a child, have been killed in a drone strike on a hotel and cafe where civilians were seeing in the new year in a Russian-controlled part of the Kherson region in southern Ukraine. Vladimir Saldo, the Russian-installed governor of the region, said three Ukrainian drones had hit the celebrations in Khorly, a coastal village, in what he said was a deliberate strike against civilians. He said many people had been burned alive."

Restrictions were in place on the evening of New Year's Day for two Moscow airports. Sobyanin made no mention of casualties or damage."
