More than one million energy consumers across Ukraine are without power after overnight Russian airstrikes on energy facilities, a top presidential official has said.
Oleksiy Kuleba, deputy head of the presidential administration, said the strikes had affected around 700,000 residents in the eastern Kharkiv region and at least 200,000 each in the southern Odesa and southeastern Dnipro region.
Another 110,000 people were affected in the central Poltava region.
Ukraine's energy grid is currently receiving urgent assistance from Poland, Romania and Slovakia.
The country's air force said earlier it had downed 92 of 151 missiles and drones fired at Ukraine.
