Russia-Ukraine war: List of key events, day 1,419

"Fighting At least two people have been killed and three others injured as Russia launched attacks on Ukraine's northeastern city of Kharkiv, according to Regional Governor Oleh Syniehubov. Russia also initiated a separate missile attack on the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, and air defence units have been deployed to repel it, Mayor Vitali Klitschko said on Telegram. Tymur Tkachenko, the head of Kyiv's military administration, warned residents to take cover. There were no immediate reports on casualties or damage to properties and infrastructure in the attack."

"Russian drones struck two foreign-flagged vessels, Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Oleksii Kuleba said, the second such attack in four days on Black Sea shipping. Kuleba said the vessels were sailing under the flags of Panama and San Marino, and that one person was injured. Russia attacked energy infrastructure in Ukraine's southern Odesa region, causing blackouts that affected at least 33,500 families, Ukraine's largest private energy firm DTEK said, describing the damage as significant."

"Emergency crews are struggling to restore heat and power to beleaguered Kyiv residents, more than three days after Russian strikes on energy infrastructure. Kuleba said on Telegram that 90 percent of Kyiv's apartment buildings have had their heating restored, leaving fewer than 500 dwellings still to be connected. But Mayor Klitschko put the number with no heating at 800, with most living on the west bank of the Dnipro River."

Russian attacks struck Kharkiv, killing at least two people and injuring three, and launched a separate missile strike on Kyiv that prompted air defences to deploy. Residents in Kyiv were warned to take cover. Russian drones hit two foreign-flagged vessels in the Black Sea, the second such attack in four days, injuring one crew member. Strikes on energy infrastructure in Odesa caused blackouts affecting at least 33,500 families and significant damage. Emergency crews continue restoring heat and power in Kyiv; between 500 and 800 apartment buildings remained without heating, mostly on the Dnipro's west bank. The U.N. recorded 2,514 civilian deaths and 12,142 injuries in 2025, a 31 percent rise from 2024.
