On Christmas Day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned a ruthless attack by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who launched over 70 missiles and 100 explosive drones targeting Ukraine. The assault resulted in one death and several injuries, causing significant damage to energy sites across the country. While Ukrainian air defense systems intercepted many missiles, the attacks forced residents to seek shelter. The incident highlights escalating tensions as Ukraine celebrates Christmas on December 25 for the second consecutive year, following a law passed in 2023.
