Air raids across Ukraine; multiple regions hit, deaths reported

Explosions were heard in Ukraine’s capital Kiev and a number of other regions early on Friday, shortly after an air raid warning was issued for the country’s entire territory.
The TSN television channel said blasts were heard in Kiev, Kremenchug, Dnepr and in the regions of Kiev, Nikolayev, Poltava and Cherkasy.

 There were no immediate reports on the damage or any casualties in Kyiv following the attacks, with city officials saying air defence systems had destroyed at least 11 cruise missiles and two drones.
