Kyiv prepares for winter

In Kyiv, residents are getting ready for a new cold season that is starting as Russian strikes continue. Families are setting up tents in their living rooms, generators are running again, and the upper floors of some buildings are gradually emptying. Le Temps reports from an emblematic Soviet-era apartment block in the Rusanivka district on the left bank of the Dnipro, completed in the 1960s, which came close to collapse last winter. A resident in her thirties, who lives on the ninth floor with her husband and their 7-year-old son, recalled that temperatures inside the flat fell to between two and four degrees during the cold weeks of last winter.

Context of the two reports

The Voronezh attack and the Kyiv preparations are reported separately, with no link between them in the sources. The Voronezh figures are the governor's statement issued on Monday, and the drone count covers the night and the morning before that statement.
