“The energy and gas infrastructure in various regions of Ukraine is under mass missile and drone shelling again,” Energy Minister German Galushchenko wrote on Facebook.
“Russia is trying to hurt ordinary Ukrainians by shelling energy and gas production facilities, without abandoning its goal of leaving us without power and heating, and causing the greatest harm to ordinary citizens,” he added.
The latest wave of airstrikes comes as EU leaders, concerned about potential U.S. disengagement with Ukraine, agreed to strengthen the bloc’s defense capabilities at a crisis summit on Thursday. Meanwhile, Washington said talks with Kyiv were back on track to negotiate a ceasefire with Moscow.
