As part of Kyiv\u2019s efforts to reduce Russia\u2019s offensive capabilities, Ukrainian forces attacked the Zhutovskaya oil depot in Russia\u2019s Volgograd region<\/a> overnight Saturday, the General Staff said in a post on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Zelenskyy\u2019s comments come after a week of escalating Russian strikes<\/a> on Ukraine\u2019s energy infrastructure, which left the regions of Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk without electricity and heating as temperatures plunged well below zero.<\/p>\n

In the capital, renewed attacks killed at least four people and injured 25 others. The city\u2019s mayor urged<\/a> residents who could leave to do so, as roughly half of Kyiv\u2019s apartment buildings were left without power or heat.<\/p>\n

Russia also launched<\/a> a nuclear-capable Oreshnik ballistic missile at Ukraine\u2019s Lviv region on Thursday, striking near the EU and NATO border as part of a massive barrage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"He declined to provide details, saying it was \u201ctoo early\u201d to speak publicly about certain operations, but stressed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":688969,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7655],"tags":[2594,768,28,5719,473,1312,25799,7058,12336,25809,2598,54490,2822,332,811,1199,657,333,2601,771,335],"class_list":{"0":"post-688968","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-russia","8":"tag-air-defense","9":"tag-borders","10":"tag-buildings","11":"tag-cities","12":"tag-defense","13":"tag-electricity","14":"tag-energy-infrastructure","15":"tag-european-defense","16":"tag-european-defense-policy","17":"tag-mayors","18":"tag-missiles","19":"tag-multinational-defense-programs","20":"tag-regions-cohesion","21":"tag-russia","22":"tag-security","23":"tag-services","24":"tag-ukraine","25":"tag-vladimir-putin","26":"tag-volodymyr-zelenskyy","27":"tag-war","28":"tag-war-in-ukraine"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115876689612615626","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=688968"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688968\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/688969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=688968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=688968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=688968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
