Middle East on Edge After Israel Bombs Lebanon to Thwart Attack

Ukraine said Russia fired more than 100 missiles and nearly as many drones at cities across the country on Monday in a massive attack against power infrastructure that caused blackouts and left at least three people dead. #politics #worldnews #russia #ukraine #putin #zelensky

The energy sector has sustained significant damage, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in a post on the X social media network, calling the strike one of the largest since the Kremlin’s invasion of his country began more than two years ago.

Russia has been stepping up efforts to knock out Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure, including power, heating and water supplies, ahead of the winter season. The latest attack comes as Kyiv continues its incursion in the Kursk region of Russia, which caught Moscow off guard and has prompted tens of thousands of residents to flee their homes.
