Two of #Russia's kamikaze drones struck fuel storage facilities in #Novomoskovsk in #Dnipropetrovsk region.

Happening now in #Moscow
The historic St Peter and Paul Orthodox Church is on fire. Situated quite near the centre, just outside the Garden Ring, it was reputedly designed by Peter The Great.

This is the scene in #Zaporizhzhia where, as I reported earlier in the thread, #Russia struck with S-300 missiles.
A small cafe took the force of the hit, in a residential area. Most nearby apartments had their windows blown out.
Remarkably no one was injured.
