snip-"Shortly before 1 a.m., Ukraine's Air Force issued a nationwide aerial alert, warning that Russia had launched MiG-31 bombers and that every region in the country was now at risk of ballistic missile strikes.

Tkachenko later warned that many Russian drones were headed toward the capital and that missile strikes were also a possible threat.

Explosions were heard in Ukraine's capital, a Kyiv Independent journalist on the ground reported at 3:08 a.m. local time, as many air defense systems worked to knock down Russian drones"
