Bombed, not beaten: Ukraine’s capital flips to survival mode

About 70 percent of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv still without power on Thursday morning. Some residents resorted to collecting rainwater from drainpipes as repair teams labored to reconnect supplies. Kherson came under the heaviest bombardment since Ukrainian forces recaptured the southern city two weeks ago. Russia says attacks are in response to "reckless appeals" by Kyiv to defeat Russia. The Russian ambassador to the UN describes strikes as a response to the flow of weapons to Ukraine.
