Ukraine has been forced to introduce emergency power cuts across the country as Russia launched one of its biggest missile attacks since the start of the war

Two people were killed when an apartment block was hit in central Kryvyi Rih and another died in shelling in Kherson in the south, they said.

Russia has rained missiles on Ukrainian energy infrastructure almost weekly since early October after several battlefield defeats, but Friday's attack seemed to have caused more damage than many others and snow and ice is now widespread. "Two people were killed. At least five were wounded, including two children," Valentyn Reznichenko posted.

The head of a Russian proxy"people's militia" in Luhansk said a civilian had been killed by Ukrainian shelling in the town of Svatove, some 70km further south. Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said there had been"massive shelling"."The goal of the Russian Federation is for Ukrainians to be constantly under pressure," she wrote in a social media post, vowing that Ukraine would endure.The country has managed to restore much of its power and water supplies after previous attacks but that task becomes harder each time.

With no peace talks in sight, Ukrainian defence chiefs on Thursday predicted Russia would launch a new all-out offensive early next year that could include a second attempt to take Kyiv, which they tried and failed to capture early this year.

It's time for the west to give Ukraine long range missiles to bomb russian power stations

When did Ireland have to take on the problems of the world

the war started in 2014. Very shoddy reporting.

Maybe it's time RTE News started getting their information from somewhere other than NATO. There is very definitely two sides to this war; a war that didn't just start this year.

Can the rest of the world not do something to stop Russia?

RTEejit world: Russia is running out of missiles, is on the verge of defeat and Putler's exit plans for S America are at an advanced stage... Real World: The Russian Army fires 73 missiles in less than an hour taking out power to over 50% of the former Ukraine, Dat makes sense!

A war caused by NATO and Ukraine, and yet western media blames Russia 😅

Ukraine say 40 missiles were launched but 37 of them were shot down with anti-missile weapons ....3 got thought and caused the destruction....They need the American patriot system urgently...

Russian damage to energy infrastructure almost as bad as the Irish state's
