Three people were killed when an apartment block was hit in central Kryvyi Rih and another died in shelling in Kherson in the south, they said. Russian-installed officials in occupied eastern Ukraine said 12 people had died by Ukrainian shelling.
Kyiv warned on Thursday that Moscow planned a new all-out offensive early next year, around a year after its February 24 invasion, in which wide areas of Ukraine have been shattered by missiles and artillery but little of it taken by Russian forces. Russia flew warplanes near Ukraine to try to distract its air defences, Ukraine’s air force said. Its army chief said 60 of 76 Russian missiles had been shot down but Energy Minister German Galushchenko said at least nine power-generating facilities had been hit.“They want to destroy us, and make us slaves. But we will not surrender. We will endure,” said Lidiya Vasilieva, 53, as she headed for shelter at a railway station in the capital Kyiv.
The northeastern city of Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second largest, was also badly hit, knocking out electricity, heating and running water. Interfax Ukraine news agency cited regional governor Oleh Synehubov as saying later on Friday that 55% of the city’s power was back up, and 85% in the surrounding region.
“The goal of the Russian Federation is for Ukrainians to be constantly under pressure,” Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko wrote in a social media post.The country has restored much of its power and water supply after previous attacks but that task has got harder each time. A new assault could happen as soon as January, Zelenskiyy, General Valery Zaluzhniy and General Oleksandr Syrskiy were quoted as saying in interviews with The Economist magazine.
