KYIV, Ukraine, April 3 (AFP): Russia on Friday launched almost 500 drones and missiles at Ukraine as it ramped up daytime barrages of the country, Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga said.
"Almost half a thousand drones and cruise missiles attacked Ukraine," Sybiga said on X, adding that "terrorist Russia strikes in broad daylight deliberately -- to maximise civilian casualties and damage".
Ukrainian grid operator Ukrenergo said that "due to the massive missile and drone attack, emergency power outages have been implemented" across the country.
