Nearly 300 drones and missiles struck Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, causing outages for several hundred thousand households, amid ongoing efforts to degrade winter heating and water supplies.
- In a large overnight barrage, Russia launched nearly 300 drones, 18 ballistic missiles, and seven cruise missiles at Ukraine, targeting the power grid.
- Ukrainian officials say Russia is `weaponizing winter` by targeting utilities to deny heat and running water since the war began on Feb. 24, 2022, intensifying with a hypersonic missile strike four days earlier.
- Local officials reported one strike in the Kharkiv region killed four people at a mail depot, wounded 10 in Kharkiv, damaged energy infrastructure, and left several hundred thousand households without power in the Kyiv region.
- President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged quicker deliveries of agreed U.S. and European air-defense systems and new aid pledges, while the United States called the strikes a `dangerous and inexplicable escalation`.
- Russia's Ministry of Defense reported its air defenses shot down 11 Ukrainian drones overnight, while Ukraine said domestically-produced drones hit the Atlant Aero plant in Taganrog, amid-12 C temperatures and widespread generator use.
