Fresh Russian strikes battered Ukraine's already failing electricity grid, causing blackouts across the war-torn nation and in neighbouring Moldova, in attacks Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told the UN were "an obvious crime against humanity".
The Ukrainian energy system has been left in tatters and millions have been subjected to long periods without electricity after weeks
of Russian bombardments, with the World Health Organisation (WHO) warning the country's priority this winter would be "survival".
Ukraine's military said Russian forces had fired around 70 cruise missiles at targets across the country on Wednesday and also deployed attack drones.
