Our main focus today is to gather material after a major Russian attack across several districts of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv which has injured at least 23 people, according to officials.

Footage sent to us directly shows a sizeable crater at an industrial facility in the west of the city. We ran our usual checks to establish where exactly the footage was filmed and to confirm that it is recent.

That material will now be shared with out colleagues across BBC News and BBC Ukraine who are covering the story.

We’re also sifting through other clips from Kyiv to get a sense of the full extent of the attack.

In addition, we’re also looking at footage from Russia, where there are reports of Ukrainian drone strikes. Early indications suggest an electrical substation was hit in the city of Sergiev Posad near Moscow.

Good morning and welcome to our feed today.

This is where we share our verification work, explain how open-sources help us report on conflicts when access to the ground is limited, and where we counter misinformation with our team of fact-checkers.

Here’s what our teams are working on this morning.

• We’re already seeing a lot of videos circulating online showing thick smoke hanging over parts of Kyiv after a night of Russian strikes. Our verification team will be analysing the footage to help us report on the attacks

• In Russia, we’re also seeing video following a reported Ukrainian drone strike on an electrical substation outside Moscow. We’ll bring you more details when we have them

• From Italy’s capital Rome we’re seeing reports of an explosion at a petrol station. We’re working to confirm images appearing to show the explosion
