Russian strikes on Kyiv leave 550,000 households without power

nos.nl (Dutch) —

Russian strikes on energy facilities in Kyiv and surrounding regions overnight left at least 550,000 households without power. Ukraine also reportedly received no advance warning from Western intelligence services about the attacks. Russia launched sixteen ballistic missiles and two hundred drones in three waves, hitting a school, metro station, medical center, and shops. At least one person was killed and eight injured, with air raid sirens sounding only after impact during the first wave. President Zelensky accused the US of deliberately delaying Patriot missile deliveries, saying stockpiles have dropped to a critical level. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio denied any intelligence sharing interruption, while pressure on Ukraine increases following last week's similar strikes and Starlink outages.
