Russia launched dozens of missiles against Ukraine overnight that largely landed in the cities of Kyiv and Kharkiv, Ukrainian officials said.

Ukraine’s military said Russia used 69 rockets in the latest round of attacks, including Iranian-made kamikaze drones, and that Ukraine destroyed 54 of the rockets.

Mykhailo Podolyak, adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, said Russia had launched more than 120 missiles that destroyed Ukraine’s critical infrastructure and killed civilians.

The strikes mark the latest in a series of missile barrages launched by Russia that have landed in places far from the war’s frontlines, which largely lie in the country’s east in places like Bakhmut.

Ukraine’s State Emergency Service wrote on Telegram that it received reports of damage in several districts of Kyiv overnight, the country’s capital that is located hundreds of miles from the regions Russia claimed to annex earlier this year.
