Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen rockets struck Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such assaults as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.

Energy officials said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.

The attacks come after nights of air raids in the region, portions of which are currently controlled by invading troops.
