Authorities reported that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen projectiles struck Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such attacks as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.

Energy officials said Russia was "launching a major assault" and repair crews were working to repair systems.
