Russia rains missiles, drones on Ukraine ahead of key peace negotiations

Russia has carried out its largest missile and drone assault of the year on Ukraine, ending a brief, U.S.-brokered pause in attacks. The barrage came as U.S., Russian and Ukrainian negotiators are expected to hold trilateral peace talks in Abu Dhabi this week, the second round of negotiations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of choosing terrorism over diplomacy, saying 70 missiles and 450 drones targeted energy infrastructure ahead of the talks. Targets included thermal power plants and heating facilities, critical to survival amid frigid winter temperatures that are gripping the region. In Kyiv, more than 1,100 apartment buildings lost heat. In Kharkiv, officials drained heating systems in 820 buildings to prevent pipes from freezing and bursting — damage that could make them uninhabitable. ------------------------------------- Join our newsletter at https://bit.ly/2q1tepr Follow us on Facebook:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on Twitter:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on Instagram:   / scrippsnews   Follow us on TikTok:   / scrippsnews
