Russia launched a significant missile and drone attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, marking the most massive air assault since the conflict began. Ukrainian President Volodmyr Zelensky vowed to retaliate against Russia for the attack and urged allies to lift restrictions on using Western weapons for long-range strikes inside Russian territory.
The attack resulted in at least seven fatalities and power outages in several cities. Ukrainian Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk described it as the most massive air attack in over two-and-a-half years of conflict.
