At least five people died as Russian drones hit homes in Kharkiv, Odesa and the Donetsk region, with more casualties and damage reported across Ukraine overnight.
At least five people were killed in Russian drone attacks on Ukraine overnight on Monday, including a woman and her 10-year-old killed when their home was destroyed in the Kharkiv region.
The mother and child died when a drone struck a residential area in Bohodukhiv, about 60 kilometres northwest of Kharkiv city, Ukraine's State Emergency Service said on Monday.
The bodies were recovered from the rubble of the completely destroyed house. Three other people were injured in the attack.
A separate drone strike on the southern port city of Odesa killed a 35-year-old man and injured two others, regional governor Oleh Kiper said.
Emergency service teams said they had tried to resuscitate the man but he could not be saved.
The attack damaged a 24-storey residential building, set fire to two cars and damaged a gas pipeline, Ukraine's State Emergency Service said. A sports club and surrounding buildings also sustained damage.
In the eastern Donetsk region of Ukraine, Russian strikes killed one and injured six in the city of Kramatorsk, while a separate attack on the village of Oleksiievo-Druzhkivka killed one person, according to the governor Vadym Filashkin.
Nine injured in Dnipropetrovsk
Further attacks in the central Dnipropetrovsk region injured nine people, including a 13-year-old, according to regional governor Oleksandr Hanzha.
All the injured were transferred to hospital. A 57-year-old is in serious condition while the others are in moderate condition, Hanzha said.
The drone struck the Shakhtarske settlement in the Synelnykove district, causing a fire in a three-storey building that destroyed the roof.
Russia launched 11 Iskander-M ballistic missiles and 149 drones at Ukraine overnight, Ukraine's Air Force said.
Ukrainian air defences intercepted 116 drones, while at least 23 drones and several missiles struck 15 locations across the country.
The attacks come as Russia continues its winter campaign targeting Ukrainian energy infrastructure and residential areas, despite ongoing US-brokered peace talks between Kyiv and Moscow.
