The Ukrainian air force reported that Russia launched 10 missiles and 81 drones during the assault, with significant efforts from Ukrainian air defenses shot down five missiles and 60 drones.
The strikes caused severe repercussions, including power outages and water shortages across Ukraine, with Kyiv experiencing blackouts as shops resorted to generators to maintain operations.
Regional officials reported casualties from the strikes, highlighting the critical condition of a 43-year-old woman and the uncertainty surrounding missing individuals potentially trapped under rubble.
This renewed assault on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, coming as winter approaches, is particularly concerning, as previous damage had already left critical systems vulnerable.
