Russian forces hammered energy infrastructure around Ukraine's capital with missiles and drones overnight, straining Kyiv's power supply and heating systems as temperatures headed towards zero, officials said.

Explosions rocked the city as Russia fired multiple waves of ballistic missiles, several of which hit and damaged the Northern Bridge across the Dnipro River, according to Mayor Vitali Klitschko.

Strikes on energy facilities outside Kyiv - including systems sending power from two nuclear plants to the city and Ukraine's central regions - caused serious damage, the energy ministry said, while at least two people were killed and around a dozen others wounded across Ukraine.

"The capital is facing serious difficulties with its electricity, water, and heat supplies," President Volodymyr Zelensky said on X, adding that substations in five other regions were also hit.
