2 killed as Russian overnight attack hits infrastructure in Ukraine, officials say

LONDON -- Russia overnight attacked targets across Ukraine with 241 drones and five missiles, striking energy infrastructure and killing two civilians, according to Ukraine's air force and government officials. About 175 of the drones and four of the missiles were shot down, jammed or otherwise destroyed, the air force said. Sixty-five drones hit targets in 14 locations, the air force said. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the targets were "peaceful Ukrainian cities and communities." Such attacks are happening "almost every day and every night," he said. "The primary targets of these strikes are infrastructure that keeps everyday life going," Zelenskyy said on social media on Sunday. At least two civilians -- one in Donetsk and one in Novhorod-Siverskyi in the Chernihiv region
