Russia pounded cities across Ukraine with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles early on Tuesday in attacks that authorities said killed 18 people and wounded more than 100.
The attacks on cities including Kyiv and Dnipro followed Russian warnings of strikes on the capital after a deadly drone attack on a dormitory in Ukraine’s Russian-held region of Luhansk last month which Kyiv denies carrying out.
