Portugal Colonial - Russia rains strikes across Ukraine, killing three

Moscow has fired hundreds of drones on its neighbour almost nightly since the beginning of the four-year war, and recently expanded daytime strikes.

"As a result of the enemy attack on the capital, two people died - a 12-year-old boy and a 35-year-old woman," Kyiv's mayor Vitali Klitschko wrote on Telegram.

A separate attack on the central city of Dnipro killed one more person, Oleksandr Ganzha, head of the regional administration posted on Telegram.

Ganzha said earlier that the attack wounded 10 people, including a 40-year-old woman hospitalised "in a serious condition".

It was not immediately clear if the woman was the person reported dead.

In Kyiv, rescuers pulled a child from the rubble of a residential building that collapsed in the Podilsky district, Klitschko said.

The attack on the capital wounded at least 10 people, including several medics, Klitschko said.

A blaze broke out at a building in the capital's Obolonsky district where missile debris fell, and cars were on fire, he added.

Tymur Tkachenko, head of Kyiv's military administration, warned civilians to shelter until a missile alert was lifted.

A drone strike on the northeastern city of Kharkiv wounded a 77-year-old woman and a 66-year-old man, the head of the regional military administration Oleg Synegubov said on Telegram.

Five people were wounded in an attack in the southern port city of Odesa, the head of the city's military administration Sergiy Lysak said on Telegram.
