Russia has hit Ukraine with a wave of attacks, including Iranian-made "kamikaze" drones on the capital, Kyiv.

The strikes hit critical infrastructure in three regions, cutting off electricity in hundreds of villages across the country, according to Prime Minister Denys Shmygal.

Several people have been killed, says the Ukrainian interior minister.

A week ago, the capital was hit by Russian missiles at rush hour, part of nationwide attacks which left 19 dead.

Mr Shmygal said the Russian strikes had hit regions of Kyiv, Dnipro and Sumy with strikes.

Russia said it had hit "all designated targets" in the latest attacks, confirming that Ukraine's "military command facilities and energy system" had been targets.
