On the 1,371st chilly day of Putin's grand 'peace plan' fireworks, Kyiv woke up to explosions just past 1 a.m., courtesy of Russian missiles that promised free bedtime drama. Mayor Vitali Klitschkoâyes, the boxing champ moonlighting as city mayorâreported fires, power outages, and at least two casualties, plus mysterious rubble guests possibly uninvited.
