More missiles hit as Ukrainians brace for 'worst winter' since Second World War
Posted: Nov. 26, 2022 10:42AMKyiv citizens continued their daily life Wednesday despite Russia's massive missile attack that deprived millions of Ukrainians of electricity in Kyiv, Ukraine, on Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2022.
Because of the latest strikes, the interview took place in a ministry bunker several storeys underground, inside a small concrete cell. Discussions are underway about help from Canada and documents are circulating within the federal bureaucracy, a Canadian official said in a background briefing Wednesday. But Canada doesn’t have the industrial capacity to provide its ally the needed heavy equipment, such as transformers, the official said.
Kyiv was again plunged into darkness Wednesday night and supplies of drinking water were limited. At a downtown hotel near Maidan Square, guests were asked to restrict their water use. The Ukrainian army confirmed Wednesday that a number of cities had been hit by missiles, including Lviv and Odesa. Authorities specified that energy infrastructure had been targeted as well as residential buildings. Russian attacks have destroyed generating facilities and transmission lines, affecting the entire production and distribution system.Sign up for our newsletter to get breaking news and daily digests sent to your email.
