    Russia has launched a large-scale drone attack against Ukraine on the eve of the third anniversary of the war.

    Yuriy Ignat, spokesman for Ukraine's Air Force Command, said a "record" 267 Russian drones were launched in a single, coordinated attack.

    Emergency services say the strikes caused destruction and set fire to buildings in a number of regions overnight.

    It is not clear how many people have died, but initial figures from emergency services suggest there were at least three casualties.

    Meanwhile, Russia's defence ministry said on Sunday that 20 Ukrainian drones launched into Russia were "destroyed" overnight.

    “The war continues”, Zelensky writes in a statement after the attack, asking for help bringing peace to the region.
