Russia pounded critical infrastructure facilities in western Ukraine, authorities said on Wednesday, in the latest airstrike on the latter's hobbled energy grid as it approaches mid-winter.
The governor of Ukraine's western Lviv region said two facilities, in the Drohobych and Stryi districts, were damaged in the attack.
In neighboring Ivano-Frankivsk, the governor said local air defenses were fending off Russian attacks on facilities there.
Both said no injuries had been reported but did not provide any other details.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia targeted Ukraine's gas infrastructure and other energy facilities in the strike. He said that Ukrainian air defense downed at least 30 out of over 40 Russian missiles launched in the attacks.
