Newsweek: Russia Ramps Up Attacks to Cripple Ukraine's Power as Winter Looms
Russia launched a fresh wave of missile attacks targeting cities and critical infrastructure across Ukraine on Tuesday, according to Ukrainian authorities, as the war-torn country prepares for winter and the challenges it will bring.
At least a dozen regions throughout Ukraine reported strikes on Tuesday, some of which experienced emergency blackouts because of the damage, the Associated Press said.
The Ukrainian capital of Kyiv was among the areas reportedly hit. Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko wrote on Telegram Tuesday that two residential buildings in the city's Pechersk District were hit but said several incoming missiles were shot down by air defense over Kyiv.
In a later Telegram post, Klitschko wrote that another multistory building in the same district was struck.

The Russians have so any ways of taking civilians hostage. In the occupied territories they physically take them. Those they cannot reach, they bomb their civilization to the dust.
WNU so house proud
No my dear ukie propagandist. This is a standard tactic of war. Trying to make the editor feel guilty for Russians doing this is not only inane but shameful.
As an aside no one is being bombed into dust. They are currently going for specific Targets. A mistake on Russia's part. Kiev should have looked like Fallujah by now. One big heap of rubble
Lot of apartment building blown up for going after specific targets
Russia broke the 1994 nuclear agreement
Time to pack and go warm up in Poland & Germany. Just the women, of course.
Time to nuke Russia
