Russian President Vladimir Putin has threatened Kyiv with attacks on decision-making centres using the new Oreshnik ballistic missile, claiming it cannot be intercepted. This comes after Russia launched a massive strike on Ukraine’s energy grid, leaving over 1M people without power. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of using cluster munitions against civilians and vowed a "tough response." Ukrainian cities, including Odesa and Kharkiv, were targeted, though Kyiv intercepted all incoming missiles. Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko announced emergency power cuts amid fears of further winter attacks. Western allies, including the US, are supplying Ukraine with aid to restore power infrastructure.
