Russian drone attacks have hit a thermal power plant in Mykolaiv, Ukraine, leaving over 100,000 residents without heating amid freezing temperatures. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy condemned the assault as a war tactic targeting civilians. Despite Ukraine's defense forces downing the majority of incoming drones, the damage has left many vulnerable. Zelenskyy also pushed for stronger air defense systems and unity in European support. Meanwhile, high-level peace talks are expected soon between Russian and U.S. officials, with Europe expressing concern about being sidelined.
