Kyiv: At least nine people were killed and dozens injured in a new wave of Russian missile and drone attacks across Ukraine, which also damaged a major historic cathedral in Kyiv and left large parts of the capital without electricity.

Ukrainian officials said four people were killed in strikes on Kyiv, while five rescue workers died in Kharkiv after coming under attack while responding to a fire caused by an earlier strike. More than 20 others were injured.

Among the sites damaged was the 11th-century Dormition Cathedral at the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra monastery, one of Ukraine's most important religious and cultural landmarks. Ukrainian authorities condemned the attack and said they would seek an international response over the damage to the historic site.
