Major developments overnight in Ukraine as explosions shatter months of relative peace in the country's capital.

We'll have a live report in just a moment.

Plus, new reporting on what former President Trump is trying to withhold from the Justice Department through more claims of executive privilege.

Meanwhile, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is making headlines for a racist rant during a rally

for the former president.

Good morning and welcome to way too early on this Monday, October 10th.

that includes the historic old town, as well as several government offices. The number of casualties

is not yet clear. Ukrainian media is also reporting

explosions in several other cities, including Leviv, which has been seen as a refuge for many people

fleeing the fighting. Air raid sirens sounded in every region of Ukraine, except Russia annexed Crimea for the past four hours.

Yesterday, Russia also launched a missile attack that hit a residential building in Zaporizia,

According to the Ukrainian Air Force, six missiles were reportedly launched from Russian occupied areas in the city. The city is

one of the four regions in Ukraine that Russia illegally claimed to annex. On his telegram account

this morning, President Volodemir Zelensky said, quote,

they're trying to destroy us and wipe us off the face of the earth. This wave of Russian attacks
