Russian forces fired waves of ballistic and cruise missiles, along with hundreds of Shahed-type drones at Ukraine overnight, targeting the country's energy infrastructure and densely populated areas, including Kyiv and its suburbs, the capital’s Military Administration head Timur Tkachenko reported on Telegram early on Feb. 3.

At least three people were injured. According to preliminary reports, the strikes damaged apartment buildings and energy hubs in five districts of Kyiv.

In the Darnytskyi district, a 25-story apartment building and a five-story residential building were damaged. A fire broke out in a non-residential building. 

A civilian infrastructure facility was hit in the Desnyanskyi district.

In the Dniprovskyi district, debris from downed aerial targets was found at two sites. A fire broke out at the kindergarten. A nearby five-story residential building was damaged. 

A gas station, along with several parked cars, were damaged in the central Pecherskyi district.

In the Shevchenkivskyi district, a 22-story apartment building was hit.

The attack was a part of a new large-scale Russian assault on Ukraine amid freezing winter temperatures. Kyiv and its suburbs, as well as Kharkiv, Dnipro, and Zaporizhzhya, were the focus of the enemy barrage.
