“Bring This Nightmare to an End”: U.S. Urges Russia at UN as Ukraine Faces Winter Attacks

The U.N. Security Council met on January 12 as U.N. officials warned that Russia has intensified attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure during a deep winter freeze, leaving millions without electricity, heating and water. Senior U.N. officials said the strikes have escalated as temperatures plunge, disproportionately affecting civilians, including children, the elderly and people with limited mobility. The United States told the council that the attacks came despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to negotiate an end to the war. U.S. Deputy Ambassador Tammy Bruce said Washington is closer to a peace deal than at any point since the conflict began, but accused Russia of dangerous escalation, including the use of a nuclear-capable Oreshnik ballistic missile near the NATO border. Russia rejected allegations of targeting civilians, while Ukraine’s ambassador warned the strikes and the use of hypersonic missiles pose a serious threat to European and international security, urging the international community to press Moscow to “bring this nightmare to an end.” #usa #ukrine #russia #news
