Moscow has escalated strikes on electrical systems over the last fortnight, while the country's government has requested "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Russia.

Officials stated that 450 drones and more than 30 missiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.
Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles struck electrical systems and residential structures in the capital.
Multiple people injured in the attacks on the capital have been transported for medical care, per statements from local officials.

The strikes follow nights of air raids in the area, portions of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
