Russia has intensified its missile and drone attacks on Ukraine, targeting critical energy infrastructure across the country. The attacks have caused blackouts and significant damage in various regions.

Ukraine's air force reports the presence of Russian drones followed by cruise and ballistic missiles, including hypersonic ones. In response, Ukraine has urged its allies to provide long-range weapons to target the source of the Russian missiles.

The International Atomic Energy Agency chief plans to visit the nuclear power plant in the conflict region due to concerns over the fighting. Russian officials have reported a Ukrainian drone attack on residential buildings in different Russian cities.

The strikes in Ukraine have resulted in casualties and injuries. In a strong response, US President Joe Biden condemned the attacks and announced the surge of energy equipment and re-prioritization of air defense exports to Ukraine.

Ukraine's President Selenskyj has vowed retaliation with F-16 fighter jets after massive Russian airstrikes. There are also concerns that Russia aims to trigger a refugee movement into the EU.

The US is considering supplying Ukraine with advanced missiles, including JASSM and other weaponry, to enhance its military capabilities. However, there are concerns about technological risks and restrictions on weapon use.
