Dozens of people have been injured in a wave of missile strikes on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv overnight, authorities say.
Fifty-three people were hurt in the attacks, including six children, Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko said.
Kindergarten and hospital buildings were reportedly damaged by debris as authorities said 10 Russian ballistic missiles had been shot down.
The strikes happened after President Volodymyr Zelensky left the US.
His plea for Congress to agree more military aid for Ukraine made little progress in winning over reluctant Republicans.
EU leaders will also discuss further aid for Ukraine on Thursday, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said “we must give Ukraine what it needs to be strong today”.
Mr Zelensky promised a response to Wednesday’s overnight attack.
