  "account": "On 29 October, Russia launched ballistic missiles at Kyiv, killing a man and wounding a 35-year-old woman, according to Kyiv city prosecutors. The strikes inflicted damage on several locations, including eight apartment blocks in Dniprovskyi district, a gas station, a restaurant, a dental clinic, warehouses, and vehicles. A warehouse building in Darnytskyi district caught fire. In response, Ukraine's Air Force intercepted 17 missiles and 96 drones, downing three of them. The attack primarily targeted Kyiv, Poltava, and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts, with Russia deploying Iskander-M, S-400, and KN-23 missiles, four Kh-59/69 guided missiles, and 113 drones throughout the night. Although air defenses intercepted most of the missiles and drones, strikes still hit 17 locations. As winter approached, Russia continued its attacks on Ukraine's cities, striking homes, transportation networks, and power grids. By the end of the day, at least 27 civilians had been killed across six regions, with 140+ injured. Among the victims, a 40-year-old man from Dnipro passed away in the hospital after being wounded during the night's drone strike on the railway station, raising the region's death toll to 15. Dnipro and Kyiv's right bank lost power, while water pumping stations switched to backup power. The following morning, engineers restored electricity to most customers in Dnipro, but over 200,000 residents remained without power.",
  "summary": "The night also blacked out Dnipro, where people were still mourning the victims of the day before.",
