Officials stated that 450 drones and several dozen projectiles targeted energy facilities, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.
Government representatives said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and repair crews were striving to repair systems.

Five out of the nine people wounded in the attacks on the capital have been hospitalized, according to local officials.
