Abstract

Russia launched a significant missile and drone attack on energy infrastructure and other targets in Ukraine, with about 120 missiles and 90 drones fired. The attack caused damage to DTEK thermoelectric power plants and led to emergency power cutoffs across Ukraine. Casualties were reported in various regions, and NATO-member Poland activated defense measures near its border with Ukraine. The attack follows recent contact between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin, drawing criticism from Ukrainian officials. The situation adds to the uncertainty as Ukraine prepares for another winter under attack from Russia. [Extracted from the article]
