So we are supposed to believe this Russian or pro-Russian source because it has a lot of minute details?

Remember "the golden rule for all falsehood"--"Detail makes for credibility."

Well, I didn't say what the source was, so I'm not sure why you assume it is "pro-Russian". In fact the details come from the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, and have been widely reported in the pro-Ukrainian Western media.

Which you could easily find yourself. But, so you don't have to, here's an article from The Hill, a reasonably decent American newspaper.

What we know about Putin’s mass strikes on Ukrainian cities

Missiles hit at least nine cities, including places far from the front lines. Beyond Kyiv, Russia’s missile strikes landed in at least eight other cities, according to state officials.

Ukraine’s emergency service said the Kremlin attacked cities across Ukraine, including Lviv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi, Chernihiv and Zhytomyr. Zelensky, Ukraine’s president, said in his address that strikes also hit Vinnytsia and Zaporizhzhia in addition to other regions.

The General Staff of the Ukraine Armed Forces said in a statement that Russian forces used 84 winged missiles and 24 unmanned aircraft, roughly half of which were Iranian-made drones. Ukraine knocked out 56 Russian targets, according to the statement.

There you go, Ace!
