Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday denounced an "inhumane" attack from Russia, which launched over 170 missiles and drones on his war-torn country's power grid on Christmas Day, killing one and causing widespread blackouts.

"Putin deliberately chose Christmas to attack. What could be more inhumane? More than 70 missiles, including ballistic missiles, and more than a hundred attack drones. The target is our energy system," Zelensky said.

Engineers were working to repair the system, as regional officials reported power cuts. "Christmas morning has once again shown that nothing is sacred for the aggressor country," said Svitlana Onyshchuk, the head of the Ivano-Frankivsk region. She said part of the region was without electricity "at a time when we celebrate one of the greatest religious holidays -- the bright Christmas."

They expected to not be invaded by a shithole Imperialist terrorist state in a landgrab war when they were never even threatening them.

Fucking insane this needs to be explained.
