At least five more civilians have been killed in attacks during the night to Tuesday, according to information from local Ukrainian authorities.
Russia's extensive attack during the night to Monday – with over 200 attack drones and rockets – has been followed up by an attack that has not been fully as extensive, but still large.
Ukraine's air force says it has shot down 60 attack drones and five rockets coming from different directions.
In the heavily fortified capital city of Kiev, all incoming projectiles are reported to have been stopped.
Hit a hotel
In the city of Kryvyj Rih, a projectile hit a hotel. Two people, a woman and a man, were killed, and several others were injured, reports the region's governor Serhij Lysak via social media.
Pictures in Ukrainian media show people covered in dust being dug out and carried away on stretchers.
"The fate of two more people is currently unknown. They may be lying under the rubble," writes Governor Lysak.
A bit further east, in the Zaporizjzja region, three more deaths are reported from the night. It is not clear if they occurred at the same location. Governor Ivan Fedorov writes that the Russian invasion forces have attacked 14 different communities in his region. In pictures published by the Ukrainian authorities, a destroyed residential house in a rural setting can be seen.
Conserving electricity
The collective attack during the night to Monday is described from the Ukrainian side as the most extensive attack of its kind so far.
Air raid warnings were issued in most of the country's regions. Attacks and explosions were reported from cities and towns in all directions. On Tuesday morning, Ukraine's state media counted a total of seven civilian deaths during Monday.
According to the Ukrainian air force, the absolute majority of projectiles were shot down, but in several cases, remnants of projectiles appear to have crashed to the ground, causing damage or fires.
The country's already strained power supply was further damaged as many attacks targeted power stations and related infrastructure. The major power companies warned early about planned power outages to conserve electricity and maintain the system.
