Nine people were injured across Ukraine, including one child, after a series of attacks involving more than thirty ballistic missiles and over one hundred seventy drones.

The strikes occurred just before Ukrainian and Russian delegations were scheduled to meet in Abu Dhabi for trilateral talks.

President Zelensky said Moscow was targeting Ukraine’s critical infrastructure in preparation for the talks.

The attacks disrupted electricity, water, and heating supplies in the capital, damaging residential buildings, the North Bridge, and a kindergarten.

In the Kyiv region, substations linking the Rivne and Khmelnytsky nuclear power plants to central Ukraine were struck.

Kyiv’s mayor reported the city’s water system was back to normal, while about sixty percent of apartment buildings remained connected to heating.
