Russia has attacked gas production plants and railway facilities in parts of Ukraine overnight, killing at least five people. In Kharkiv, a drone targeted a wagon and in the Poltava region, a drone hit the tracks near a diesel locomotive and damaged a wagon. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says Russia has shown "utter cynicism" by asking for a ceasefire and then launching missile and drone attacks on his country.
