Russia Launches Ballistic Missile Attack on Kyiv, Raising Concerns for Energy Infrastructure and Casualties

Several homes were destroyed and over 100 households were left without electricity in Kyiv, Ukraine, after a predawn missile attack by Russia. While Ukraine's air defenses intercepted all eight ballistic missiles, falling debris caused damage to homes and left one person wounded. The attack comes as Russia warns of increased attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure during the winter. Ukrainian officials have also reported intercepting Russian drones in other regions of the country. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who was in Argentina for an official trip, is set to meet with President Joe Biden in Washington to discuss support for Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression.
