Officials stated that 450 drones and more than 30 rockets attacked energy facilities, characterizing such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.
Government representatives said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and technical staff were working to fix the damage.
A wave of strikes damaged electrical systems and civilian homes in the capital.
