Cities across Ukraine were targeted by Russian missiles and drones overnight Friday, resulting in casualties and widespread power outages.
Russia's latest bombardment included Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, as well as cruise and ballistic missiles, according to Ukrainian authorities.
Nichita Gurcov, an analyst with ACLED (Armed Conflict Location & Event Data) told Newsweek that following the collapse of recent Russia-U.S. talks, Moscow is increasing its bombing campaign to disrupt Ukraine’s electricity and heating infrastructure as the winter sets in.
