Editor's note: This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
Russia launched guided bombs and drones at several Ukrainian cities and regions on Oct. 30, triggering air raid alerts and explosions across the country, with civilian casualties reported in Sumy.
Four people were reportedly injured in Sumy after Russia launched 10 drones in less than an hour, striking civilian infrastructure, including residential buildings. A young girl and an elderly woman were among the injured, according to Governor Oleh Hryhorov.
Zaporizhzhia also came under threat from Russian KAB guided bombs earlier in the evening, according to multiple sources. Governor Ivan Fedorov warned residents of an ongoing "threat of KABs in Zaporizhzhia oblast and Zaporizhzhia city."
KABs — short for Korrektiruyemaya Aviabomba — are long-range Russian guided aerial bombs equipped with wings and precision targeting systems. Russia recently upgraded the weapon, which is believed to reach distances of up to 200 kilometers, allowing strikes far beyond the front line.
Explosions were also reported in Dnipro after the Ukrainian air force announced a guided bomb was headed toward the city.
The military additionally warned of ballistic missile threats in southeastern Ukraine. Drone strikes were reported in the southern port city of Mykolaiv, with additional drones reportedly moving toward Odesa.
