President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that millions of Ukrainians have no electricity as fresh Russian strikes hit cities across Ukraine and crippled the country's energy infrastructure

"Currently, more than 10 million Ukrainians are without electricity," he said, adding that the regions of Odessa, Vinnytsia, Sumy and Kyiv were most affected.Ukraine has faced strikes against its power grid following battlefield victories against Russia, the latest being Moscow's retreat from the southern city of Kherson.

Ukraine has said that its air defences have knocked out many of the missiles and drones fired in the last few weeks."This morning Russia launched another missile barrage at Ukraine's critical infrastructure," Foreign Ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko said. Moscow's forces retreated from the southern city of Kherson last week after a Ukrainian counteroffensive.

Mr Arestovych said redeployed Russian forces have also gone on the attack in the southern Zaporizhzhia region and may be planning to launch another offensive in Kharkiv in the north, where they were pushed back by Ukraine earlier in the conflict. "We are talking about millions of customers. We are doing everything we can to bring back power. Both generation and supply," Mr Zelensky said.
