Moscow launched ‘terrorising’ attack on energy grid as temperatures reached -20C, Ukrainian president says

Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia on Tuesday of violating an agreement with Donald Trump to hold off from attacking Ukraine’s energy systems in the depths of a freezing winter, as its forces carried out large-scale airstrikes on Kyiv on the eve of three-way talks in Abu Dhabi.

Ukraine’s president said Moscow carried out a massive and “deliberate” attack overnight as temperatures in Kyiv plunged to -20C. It involved a record number of 71 ballistic missiles as well as 450 drones, he said, sent to destroy energy infrastructure.

More than 1,000 residential buildings in Kyiv were without heating on Tuesday.

Russia sure does like to do a lot of shit for a country whose entire economy relies on such highly flammable oil refineries.

He also has to deal with a lot of corruption that he is still rooting out, I can’t imagine how much that sucks during a war. Then when you uncover it yout biggest ally says “look at the corruption in Ukraine” should we really be sending them stuff?

There was never a truce. Just another Trump lie.
