KYIV, Oct 16 (Reuters) - Russia launched one of its largest drone salvos at
Ukraine in recent months, targeting Kyiv and other cities and igniting a fire at
an industrial facility in the western region of Ternopil, officials said on
Wednesday.
Air defences shot down 68 of 136 drones used in the attack, the air force said
in its readout. Two drones got back to Russia and 64 were unaccounted for,
possibly after being intercepted by electronic warfare systems, it added.

Two drones hit unidentified targets, according to the report on the attack,
which took place hours before President Volodymyr Zelenskiy unveiled his plan to
fend off Russia's invasion.
Almost 50 firefighters put out a "large-scale fire" in the Ternopil region, the
military administration wrote on the Telegram messaging app.
"There were no injuries," it said, declining to name the affected facility.
The air force said Russia also fired two missiles at the northern Chernihiv and
eastern Donetsk regions, but did not say what happened to them. There was no
immediate comment from Russia on its latest strike.

Police in neighbouring Moldova said that debris of what appeared to be a missile
had been found to the country's north, about 4 km (2.5 miles) from its border
with Ukraine's central Vinnytsia region. It was not immediately clear if it
related to the latest or a previous attack.
The drone attack caused a fire at a private residence in the region outside the
capital and damaged several other buildings, according to governor Ruslan
Kravchenko.

The region was under air alert for more than 12 hours because of the attack.
Kravchenko said there were no casualties.
All the drones that targeted Kyiv overnight were destroyed and there were no
reports of damage or injuries, Serhiy Popko, the city military administration's
chief, said.
Russian strikes have pounded Ukraine's power facilities this year and long
blackouts and other outages are almost certain to make the looming winter
difficult for ordinary Ukrainians far from the front line where Russian troops
have been advancing.

The governors of the southern Kherson and Mykolaiv regions reported power cuts
on Wednesday, with the energy authorities in Mykolaiv region saying 272,000
consumers had been affected.
Regional governor Vitaliy Kim said the sweeping outage was not the result of the
overnight strike and that the authorities were working to restore power in the
next couple of hours.
