Russian Missile Strike Hits Lviv Infrastructure

On January 15, Russia launched significant airstrikes targeting critical infrastructure in Ukraine's Lviv region, specifically damaging facilities in the Drohobych and Stryi districts. Local authorities reported that while the attacks caused damage, there were no reported casualties. Lviv's Mayor Andrii Sadovyi confirmed that enemy cruise missiles were detected, but assured that the immediate threat had subsided, and no emergency power outages were implemented in the city. In response to the attacks, Ukraine's national grid operator announced emergency power cuts across several regions. The ongoing strikes are part of Russia's broader strategy to disrupt Ukraine's energy grid as the winter season approaches. This escalation underscores the continued challenges facing Ukraine amidst the ongoing conflict.
