Russian attacks kill three and cut power to freezing Ukrainian regions
A large-scale Russian drone and missile attack on Ukraine killed at least three people, including a child, and caused widespread power outages in several regions on Tuesday, just before Christmas and during a cold snap. The attack, involving over 650 drones and 30 missiles, targeted Ukrainian energy infrastructure, marking the ninth mass attack of the season. Poland scrambled fighter jets to protect its airspace during the strike. The attacks occurred amidst ongoing negotiations involving representatives from Russia and Ukraine, facilitated by a peace envoy linked to Donald Trump, although progress remains slow. Russia continues to target Ukrainian energy infrastructure, potentially aiming to weaken the country's resolve. Kyiv and other cities have been experiencing scheduled power cuts for weeks as the grid struggles to cope with reduced capacity during the winter months.
