The bombing included hundreds of drones and a record 32 ballistic missiles, injuring at least 10 people in several cities, including Kiev, Kharkiv and Dnipro.
Russia carried out a major overnight attack on Ukraine in what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Tuesday was a “broken commitment” to stop attacking energy infrastructure, as both prepared for more peace talks.
The bombardment included hundreds of drones and a record 32 ballistic missiles, injuring at least 10 people in several cities, including Kiev, Kharkiv and Dnipro. He specifically targeted the power grid, Zelensky said, as part of what Ukraine says is Moscow’s ongoing campaign to deny civilians light, heat and running water during the coldest winter in years.
“Taking advantage of the coldest days of winter to terrorize people is more important to Russia than diplomacy,” he said.

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Secretary-General Mark Rutte visited Kiev in a gesture of support. He emphasized that the night attacks raise doubts about Moscow’s intentions on the eve of the talks, calling them “a really bad sign.”
