伦敦-周四早些时候，乌克兰所有地区都处于空袭警报中，俄罗斯对该国的电网进行了最新的远程无人机和导弹攻击，据报道，近100万人断电。
弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基总统表示，俄罗斯向乌克兰发射了约100架无人机和90多枚导弹，包括携带集束弹药的射弹。“每一次这样的袭击都证明，乌克兰现在需要防空系统，它们在那里拯救生命，而不是在储存基地，”他补充道。
“这在冬季尤其重要，因为我们必须保护我们的基础设施免受俄罗斯有针对性的打击，”泽连斯基说。
乌克兰空军表示，俄罗斯发射了91枚导弹，其中79枚被击落。空军称，俄罗斯还发射了97架无人机，其中35架被击落，62架通过干扰被压制。
空军在一份声明中说，“三枚制导飞机导弹和35架敌方无人机被击落，超过60架失去了位置。”"总共记录了12次罢工，主要是在燃料和能源部门的设施."
空军还表示，俄罗斯正在改变其武器和战术，使拦截射弹更加困难;例如，通过“发射热陷阱和雷达陷阱，还使用直接安装在导弹上的电子战个人防护手段。”
它补充说，这些措施，加上大量无人机和导弹一起发射，“大大增加了苏联制造的防空导弹系统的工作复杂性”。空军表示，西方平台更有效，但“乌克兰没有足够的平台来可靠地覆盖数百个关键的基础设施。”
空军指出，天气条件也发挥了作用。它在声明中写道，“浓雾和多云”会使地勤人员和战斗机飞行员难以拦截来袭的导弹和无人机。
俄罗斯国防部表示，四枚导弹击中了Sumy区Maly Borbik定居点附近的直接目标。
炮击事件发生后，俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京立即称赞了俄罗斯的导弹能力。
“俄罗斯的高超音速系统在世界上没有同类产品，它们的产量正在增加，”他周四在CSTO集体安全委员会的一次会议上说。
“俄罗斯联邦生产的导弹是所有北约国家总和的10倍，并将增产四分之一，”普京说。
能源部长German Galushchenko在给脸书的一封信中写道，乌克兰的能源网络面临“巨大的打击”，基础设施“在整个乌克兰”都遭到了打击
Galushchenko补充说，由于袭击，国有电网运营商Ukrenergo进入了紧急停电计划。Ukrenergo在Telegram上说，这次袭击是2024年迄今为止对能源基础设施的第11次导弹和无人机联合袭击。
美国驻乌克兰大使布里奇特·布林克(Bridget Brink)在X上写道，基辅“被空袭警报惊醒，从掩体中我们看到整个国家都受到俄罗斯导弹的威胁，因为乌克兰的能源基础设施目前正受到攻击。”
该市的军事管理部门报告称，“对基辅进行了一次导弹和无人机联合袭击，可能使用了各种类型的巡航导弹和无人机。”
政府称，首都的警报持续了九个多小时。“所有威胁基辅的导弹和无人机都被摧毁了，”它在发给Telegram的一封邮件中补充道。
据报道，乌克兰多个地区停电停水，全国各地的地方政府都报告了爆炸事件。
与波兰接壤的该国西部利沃夫军事行政当局负责人马克西姆·科济茨基(Maxim Kozitsky)在一份电报中表示，罢工后利沃夫州有52.3万用户断电。
西部罗夫诺州州长Oleksandr Koval表示，该地区681个定居点因导弹袭击而断电，约28万人断电。
沃伦州州长伊万·鲁德尼茨基报告说，他所在地区另有215，000人断电。
与此同时，俄罗斯国防部报告称，在俄罗斯四个地区以及被占领的克里米亚击落了27架乌克兰无人机。
弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基总统办公室主任安德烈·叶尔马克在电报中写道，莫斯科正在使用“恐怖战术”
“他们储备了大量导弹，用于袭击乌克兰的基础设施，在寒冷的冬天与平民作战，”他补充道。“他们得到了疯狂盟友的帮助，尤其是来自(朝鲜)的盟友。”
“现在俄罗斯人正在对这个国家进行联合炮击，”耶尔马克补充道。“他们甚至和孩子打架，”他写道，并警告说乌克兰会做出回应。
Russia launches 'massive' drone and missile energy blitz across Ukraine
LONDON --All regions of Ukraine were under air raid alerts early Thursday amid Russia's latest long-range drone and missile barrage against the country's energy grid, with almost 1 million people reportedly left without power.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russia launched around 100 drones and more than 90 missiles into Ukraine, including projectiles carrying cluster munitions. "Each such attack proves that air defense systems are needed now in Ukraine, where they save lives, and not in storage bases," he added.
"This is especially important in the winter, when we have to protect our infrastructure from targeted Russian strikes," Zelenskyy said.
Ukraine's air force said Russia launched 91 missiles, 79 of which it said were shot down. Russia also launched 97 drones, the air force said, of which 35 were downed and 62 neutralized via jamming.
"Three guided aircraft missiles and 35 enemy UAVs were shot down, and more than 60 were lost in location," the air force said in a statement. "In total, 12 strikes were recorded, mainly at fuel and energy sector facilities."
The air force also said Russia is changing its weapons and tactics, making it harder to intercept projectiles; for example, by "shooting thermal and radar traps and also using electronic warfare personal protection means installed directly on missiles."
These measures, plus the large number of drones and missiles fired together, "significantly complicates the work of Soviet-made anti-aircraft missile systems," it added. Western platforms, the air force said, are more effective, but there "are not enough in Ukraine to reliably cover hundreds of critical infrastructure facilities."
Weather conditions also played a role, the air force noted. "Dense fog and cloudiness" can make it difficult for ground crews and fighter pilots to intercept incoming missiles and drones, it wrote in its statement.
The Russian Defense Ministry said four missiles hit direct targets near the settlement of Maly Borbik in the Sumy district.
Russian President Vladimir Putin lauded Moscow's missile capabilities immediately after the barrage.
"The Russian hypersonic systems have no analogues in the world, their production is increasing," he said during at a session of the CSTO's Collective Security Council on Thursday in Astana, Kazakhstan.
"The Russian Federation produces 10 times more missiles than all NATO countries combined, and will increase production by a quarter," Putin said.
Energy Minister German Galushchenko wrote in a post to Facebook that the country's energy network faced "a massive blow," with strikes on infrastructure "throughout Ukraine."
The state-owned grid operator Ukrenergo, Galushchenko added, moved onto emergency power outage schedules due to the attacks. Ukrenergo said on Telegram that the attack was the eleventh combined missile and drone attack on energy infrastructure in 2024 to date.
U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink wrote on X that Kyiv "awoke to air raid sirens and from the bunker we see the whole country is red from the threat of missiles from Russia as Ukraine's energy infrastructure is currently under attack."
The city's military administration reported "a combined missile and drone strike on Kyiv using, presumably, cruise missiles and drones of various types."
The alert in the capital lasted for more than nine hours, the administration said. "All missiles and drones that threatened Kyiv were destroyed," it added in a post to Telegram.
Power and water interruptions were reported in multiple regions of Ukraine, with explosions reported by local administrations across the country.
Maxim Kozitsky, the head of the Lviv military administration in the west of the country bordering Poland, said on Telegram that 523,000 customers in Lviv Oblast were without electricity following the strikes.
Oleksandr Koval, the governor of the western Rivne Oblast, said 681 settlements in region were without electricity due to missile attacks with some 280,000 people disconnected.
Volyn Oblast Governor Ivan Rudnytskyi reported another 215,000 people without power in his region.
The Russian Defense Ministry, meanwhile, reported downing 27 Ukrainian drones over four Russian regions, as well as occupied Crimea.
Andriy Yermak -- the head of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's office -- wrote on Telegram that Moscow was using "terror tactics."
"They made stockpiles of missiles for attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure, for war with civilians during cold weather, during the winter," he added. "They were helped by their crazy allies, in particular from [North Korea]."
"Now the Russians are carrying out a combined shelling of the country," Yermak added. "They even fight with children," he wrote, warning that Ukraine will respond.
