Seems like there were power cuts to the city, with lights going dark in the cityscape background live behind some of the reporters giving their reports and statements around 6:40ish am local time. The airport which is some distance away from the center of the city where the journalists are has had explosions according to multiple reports - dont know if its a civilian or military specific one but that distinction doesn't really matter at times like now.
It happened at exactly 6:30 and even the reporter corrected the host and said that the lights go off automatically every morning at that time. I don't trust the reporting I'm hearing just yet. It seems they're overblowing the situation. I hope I'm right at least.
I'm also guessing the explosions that were heard were not Russian military attacking Ukraine. There are many players on this battlefield.
Noted - I thought it was a little bit later than that but wasnt paying particular attention to the time. Also reporters were talking up all the 'cyberattacks they have seen'. They were vague about this and said some websites were unavailable.
Pretty sure that if Russia was serious about any attack, that all comms anywhere would be down. Telephony, internet, satellite stuff, relay towers, all the backbone cables and routers.. all would be busted. What puts it to a lie is all the reporters seemingly able to stream all their live broadcasts just fine, no apparent comms down anywhere.
