Russia launched another major wave of missile and drone attacks across Ukraine overnight, killing four people and “wiping out” a hotel.
Air defence systems were deployed several times overnight, including in Kyiv, where Reuters witnesses said they heard at least three rounds of explosions.
Two people were killed when a hotel was “wiped out” in the central city of Kryvyi Rih, Serhiy Lisak, the governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region where Kryvyi Rih is located, said.
Meanwhile, two more died in drone attacks on Zaporizhzhia in the south east of Ukraine.
It comes after seven people were killed overnight Sunday to Monday as Moscow launched its “biggest air attack” of the war.
One of those killed in Monday’s attack included Ryan Evans, a British safety advisor for Reuters, who was found dead after the Hotel Sapfir was hit in the eastern city of Kramatorsk.
