Taylor Wilson:

Good morning and Happy New Year. I'm Taylor Wilson and this is 5 Things you need to know Monday, the 2nd of January, 2023. Today, more attacks on Ukraine's capital. Plus, tensions in Brazil as a new president takes office, and we look at how to care for your mental health in the new year.

Residents in Kyiv celebrating the new year were interrupted by air raid sirens and a series of missiles in what Ukrainian officials are calling a targeted Russian attack on civilians. Dozens were injured on New Year's Eve as rockets hit the capital city. Officials said two schools were also damaged, including a kindergarten. The latest attacks come after Russia targeted power and water infrastructure in the country over the past week. This weekend, in his New Year's address, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy promised never to forgive Russia for its missile barrage. And he said Russian president Vladimir Putin is, "hiding behind the military, behind missiles, behind the walls of his residences and palaces." Zelenskyy also addressed Russia in its own language. Putin said last month that Moscow may be open to talks to wind down the war. But Ukraine and much of the West have dismissed the comments and US analysts have said an end to the war doesn't appear to be close.

Brazil's Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was sworn in as president yesterday.
