Kyiv came under heavy bombardment early on Sunday in what independent monitors said was one of the biggest Russian attacks on the Ukrainian capital since Moscow launched its full-scale war more than three and a half years ago.
Drones flew over the city and surrounding region and anti-aircraft fire rang out through the night. The attack was continuing as of 7:20 a.m. (0420 GMT).
Some residents fled to metro stations deep underground for safety. Many regions across the country were under air raid alert.
