Russian attacks disrupt power, water supplies in Kiev

Russia's air raids caused large-scale power and water supply disruptions in Ukraine's capital of Kiev on Tuesday, said Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko, reported Xinhua.

A total of 5,635 apartment buildings in Kiev were left without heating following Russia's overnight aerial attacks, Klitschko wrote on social media Telegram.

The strikes caused massive power and water supply disruptions, while utility and energy workers were working to restore heating, water and electricity supplies, Klitschko said.

In Kiev, a woman was injured, while buildings and vehicles were damaged, according to the mayor.

In the region surrounding Kiev, a 50-year-old man was killed in the attack, said regional Governor Mykola Kalashnyk.

The strikes came as night temperatures in Kiev dropped to minus 14 degrees Celsius. As of Monday evening, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine had set up 91 emergency heating tents across the city, accommodating residents to warm up and charge electronic devices.
