Two people were killed and 20 unjured in a Russian missile strike on the Ukranian city of Dnipro, regional officials said on Tuesday (November 3).

Rescuers worked through the rubble of a partially collapsed apartment building and recovered the body of a resident after which search operarions ended.

One resident said she witnessed strikes on a nearby thermal power plant, less than a kilometre from the damaged building.

Russia launched a sweeping, multi-wave bombardment of Ukraine's energy infrastructure on Tuesday, knocking out power to swathes of the country with dozens of missiles and hundreds of drones.

Ukraine's largest private energy-generating company DTEK said three of its five thermal power plants had been knocked offline.

Russia's Defence Ministry said that its troops struck Ukrainian electricity facilities in several regions that supply power to military factories and the Ukranian army.

During more than four years of the war, Russia has repeatdly targeted the Ukrainian energy system, destroying generation, distribution, and heating facilities in attacks that have worsened each year as cold winter months approach. Ukraine has stepped up strikes on Russian oil refineries this year.
