Christmas attack on Ukraine leads to power shortages, Zelenskyy says
Ukrainian president says Vladimir Putin “deliberately” chose Christmas Day to carry out the attack.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has condemned what he called an “inhumane” Christmas Day Russian drone strike.

“Every massive Russian strike requires time for preparation. It is never a spontaneous decision,” he said Wednesday.

The Ukrainian defense ministry said Russia launched 78 missiles and 106 drones, of which it shot down 113. Nonetheless, Zelensky said there were power “outages in several regions.”

“The targets are our energy infrastructure. They continue to fight for a blackout in Ukraine,” Zelenskyy added.

Ukrainian energy minister German Galushchenko said on Facebook that the transmission system operator took “the necessary consumption restriction measures to minimize the negative consequences for the energy system.”

Taking a dig at Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, Ukrainian foreign minister Andrei Sybiha said on X that “this Christmas terror is Putin’s response to those who spoke about illusionary ‘Christmas ceasefire.’” In days leading up to Christmas, Orbán had campaigned for a cease-fire between Russia and Ukraine, which Zelenskyy dismissed during an EU leaders summit he attended on Dec. 19.

Half a million people in the ravaged Kharkiv region were left without heating, while there were blackouts in Kyiv, according to media reports.
