Russia Launches Massive Missile Barrage on Ukraine's Energy Grid

Russia launched a large-scale missile attack on Ukraine, resulting in at least 27 civilian deaths and numerous injuries across several regions, including Sumy and Odesa. The U.S. has authorized Ukraine to use long-range ATACMS missiles, potentially escalating the conflict. Despite the attacks, Ukraine's air defenses neutralized many threats, and the country continues to receive significant international financial support. The conflict has seen increased civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure, with Ukraine focusing on enhancing its military capabilities, particularly in drone and missile technology.
