Reporting note: Confirmed events and official warnings are distinguished from hypothetical scenarios and unverified attribution.
Russian missile and drone attacks across Ukraine on Saturday damaged homes, businesses and energy infrastructure, according to Ukrainian officials and Associated Press reporting. The strikes caused new power and water interruptions.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described a large overnight barrage and called for stronger international support. Moscow said it targeted facilities connected to Ukraine's military operations.
The attacks came as representatives of Russia, Ukraine and the United States prepared for another round of talks in Abu Dhabi. The negotiations face deep disagreements over territory and security arrangements.
The power interruptions in Ukraine are documented wartime damage. They should not be conflated with Britain's hypothetical 'black sky' emergency planning or Europe's separate refrigeration cyberattacks.
