AP SOURCE: RUSSIAN MISSILES CROSS INTO POLAND DURING STRIKE

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia pounded Ukraine’s energy facilities Tuesday with its
biggest barrage of missiles yet, striking targets across the country and causing
widespread blackouts. A senior U.S. intelligence official said missiles crossed
into NATO member Poland and killed two people.

A second person told The Associated Press that apparent Russian missiles struck
a site in Poland about 15 miles from the Ukrainian border.
If confirmed, the strike would mark the first time in the war that Russian
weapons have come down on a NATO country.
The Russian Defense Ministry denied being behind “any strikes on targets near
the Ukrainian-Polish border” and said in a statement that photos of purported
damage “have nothing to do” with Russian weapons.
A NATO official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the alliance was
looking into reports of a strike in Poland. The U.S. National Security Council
said it was also checking into the reports.
Polish government spokesman Piotr Mueller confirmed that an explosion had killed
two people and said some military units were put on alert while officials
investigated.
Polish media reported that the strike took place in an area where grain was
drying in Przewodów, a village near the border with Ukraine.
The barrage also affected neighboring Moldova. It reported massive power outages
after the strikes knocked out a key power line that supplies the small nation,
an official said.
The missile strikes plunged much of Ukraine into darkness and drew defiance from
President Volodymr Zelenskyy, who shook his fist and declared: “We will survive
everything.”
In his nightly address, the Ukrainian leader characterized the reported strikes
in Poland as “a very significant escalation” that offered proof that “terror is
not limited by our state borders.”
“We need to put the terrorist in its place. The longer Russia feels impunity,
the more threats there will be for everyone within the reach of Russian
missiles,” Zelenskyy said.
Russia fired at least 85 missiles, most of them aimed at the country’s power
facilities, and blacked out many cities, he said.
The Ukrainian energy minister said the attack was “the most massive” bombardment
of power facilities in the nearly 9-month-old Russian invasion, striking both
power generation and transmission systems.
The minister, Herman Haluschenko, described the missile strikes as “another
attempt at terrorist revenge” after military and diplomatic setbacks for the
Kremlin. He accused Russia of “trying to cause maximum damage to our energy
system on the eve of winter.”
The aerial assault, which resulted in at least one death in a residential
building in the capital, Kyiv, followed days of euphoria in Ukraine sparked by
one of its biggest military successes — the retaking last week of the southern
city of Kherson.
The power grid was already battered by previous attacks that destroyed an
estimated 40% of the country’s energy infrastructure. Zelenskyy said the number
of Ukrainians without power had fallen from 10 million to 2 million by Tuesday
evening.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has not commented on the retreat from Kherson
since his troops pulled out in the face of a Ukrainian offensive. But the
stunning scale of Tuesday’s strikes spoke volumes and hinted at anger in the
Kremlin.
By striking targets in the late afternoon, not long before dusk began to fall,
the Russian military forced rescue workers to labor in the dark and gave repair
crews scant time to assess the damage by daylight.
More than a dozen regions — among them Lviv in the west, Kharkiv in the
northeast and others in between — reported strikes or efforts by their air
defenses to shoot missiles down. At least a dozen regions reported power
outages, affecting cities that together have millions of people. Almost half of
the Kyiv region lost power, authorities said.
Zelenskyy warned that more strikes were possible and urged people to stay safe
and seek shelter.
“Most of the hits were recorded in the center and in the north of the country.
In the capital, the situation is very difficult,” said a senior official, Kyrylo
Tymoshenko.
He said a total of 15 energy targets were damaged and claimed that 70 missiles
were shot down. A Ukrainian Air Force spokesman said Russia used X-101 and X-555
cruise missiles.
As city after city reported attacks, Tymoshenko urged Ukrainians to “hang in
there.”
With its battlefield losses mounting, Russia has increasingly resorted to
targeting Ukraine’s power grid, seemingly hoping to turn the approach of winter
into a weapon by leaving people in the cold and dark.
In Kyiv, Mayor Vitali Klitschko said authorities found a body in one of three
residential buildings that were struck in the capital, where emergency blackouts
were also announced by power provider DTEK.
Video published by a presidential aide showed a five-story, apparently
residential building in Kyiv on fire, with flames licking through apartments.
Klitschko said air defense units also shot down some missiles.
Dutch Foreign Minister Wopke Hoekstra took to a bomb shelter in Kyiv after
meeting his Ukrainian counterpart and, from his place of safety, described the
bombardment as “an enormous motivation to keep standing shoulder-to-shoulder”
with Ukraine.
“There can be only one answer, and that is: Keep going. Keep supporting Ukraine,
keep delivering weapons, keep working on accountability, keep working on
humanitarian aid,” he said.
The strikes came as authorities were already working furiously to get Kherson
back on its feet and beginning to investigate alleged Russian abuses there and
in the surrounding area.
The southern city is without power and water, and the head of the U.N. human
rights office’s monitoring mission in Ukraine, Matilda Bogner, on Tuesday
decried a “dire humanitarian situation” there.
Speaking from Kyiv, Bogner said her teams are looking to travel to Kherson to
try to verify allegations of nearly 80 cases of forced disappearances and
arbitrary detention.
The head of the National Police of Ukraine, Igor Klymenko, said authorities are
to start investigating reports from Kherson residents that Russian forces set up
at least three alleged torture sites in now-liberated parts of the wider Kherson
region.
The retaking of Kherson dealt another stinging blow to the Kremlin. Zelenskyy
likened the recapture to the Allied landings in France on D-Day in World War II,
saying both were watershed events on the road to eventual victory.
But large parts of eastern and southern Ukraine remain under Russian control,
and fighting continues.
In other developments, leaders of most of the world’s economic powers were
drawing closer to approval of a declaration strongly denouncing Russia’s
invasion.
On Tuesday, U.S. President Joe Biden and Zelenskyy pressed fellow G20 leaders at
the summit in Indonesia for a robust condemnation of Russia’s nuclear threats
and food embargoes. More discussion and a possible vote come Wednesday.
