Russian attacks cause power outages for more than 600,000 residents in Ukraine

More than 600,000 residents in the Kiev region of Ukraine were left without electricity this Saturday after a Russian attack overnight.

Ukraine's Energy Ministry said more than 500,000 of them were in the capital, with the rest in the surrounding region. It attributed the power outages to missile and drone attacks on energy infrastructure in the city and several other regions.

Some 36 missiles and nearly 600 drones were fired at targets across Ukraine overnight, officials said, killing three people and wounding dozens more.
