Russia launched a major attack on Ukraine’s energy system on Christmas Day, using missiles and drones. The Russian defence ministry said the strikes targeted critical infrastructure tied to Ukraine’s military. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attack, calling it "inhuman." In Kharkiv, half a million people were left without heating after the strikes. Moldova reported a Russian missile violating its airspace, though Romania denied any breach of its territory. The strikes come amid ongoing conflict, with both sides intensifying military actions. Ukrainian authorities are working to restore power and heating to affected areas amidst freezing winter temperatures.
