Kyiv's Deep Freeze: 1,000 Buildings Still Without Heat After Strikes

A major Russian missile and drone attack has left a severe and ongoing crisis in Ukraine's capital. One week later, approximately 1,000 apartment buildings in Kyiv remain without heating. City Mayor Vitali Klitschko stated the energy supply situation is still "very difficult." Emergency crews are working non-stop to repair the damaged power and heating infrastructure. The widespread outages come during freezing winter temperatures, raising urgent concerns for residents' health and safety. The attacks targeted critical energy facilities across Ukraine. Authorities are operating public "heating points" where people can find warmth, hot drinks, and electricity. Officials have not provided an estimate for when full heating will be restored to all buildings.
