Russia-Ukraine war: List of key events, day 1,256
Kyiv's military administration warned residents of the Ukrainian capital to take shelter on Saturday night due to the takeoff of a Russian MiG-31K, the carrier of the Russian Kinzhal air-launched ballistic missile, in a post on Telegram. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said that its team heard explosions and saw smoke coming from an "auxiliary facility" located 1,200 metres from the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. The Russian-installed administration of the plant said that a civilian was killed by Ukrainian shelling. A fire that broke out near the plant was brought under control, the administrators added in a post on Telegram. An elderly man was killed inside a house that caught fire due to falling Ukrainian drone debris in Russia's Samara region, Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev posted on Telegram.
