Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen projectiles struck energy facilities, describing such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.

The energy minister said Russia was "launching a major assault" and repair crews were working to repair systems.

Local officials said the urban area endured intense attacks during nighttime hours. A young boy died and multiple civilians were injured.

The attacks follow evenings of aerial attacks in the region, portions of which remain under the control of invading troops.

The entire country is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are more difficult to spot.

National leaders told reporters that Moscow was purposely seeking to destroy the country's energy grid, with strikes already impacting fuel infrastructure.

Authorities confirmed utility staff and government agencies were anticipating further attacks.
