As millions of Ukrainians celebrate Christmas Day, Russia has launched a major missile and drone attack on the country’s energy infrastructure

President Zelensky says Russia made a “conscious choice” to launch attacks at Christmas

Ukraine’s air force says it detected 184 missiles and drones - many were shot down or missed their target

Russia confirms what it calls the “massive” attack, saying the “goal was achieved”

In Kyiv, people sheltered in metro stations - “It’s scary to stay at home,” one woman says

There are power cuts and planned outages across the country, including in parts of Kyiv

In bitterly cold Ukraine, attacks on power sites are now a regular occurrence.
