Russia Escalates Energy Attacks as Zelensky Calls for Stronger Global Pressure.

Meanwhile, Russian missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in large parts of Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv.

The city’s mayor, Vitali Klitschko, disclosed that nine people were injured while residents in eastern districts were plunged into darkness and faced disruption to water supplies.

Meanwhile, a seven-year-old child was killed in a separate Russian drone strike in the Zaporizhzhia area in the country’s south-east.

Moscow has escalated attacks on energy facilities over recent weeks, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for real steps from allies to apply pressure to Russia.
