Summary
Russia launched a major attack on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure on Christmas Day, using 184 missiles and drones, resulting in power cuts across the country.
Ukrainian President Zelensky condemned the attack, calling it “inhumane” and a “conscious choice” by Russia.
Despite the damage and casualties, Ukrainians remain resilient, celebrating Christmas amidst the crisis.
Some people still celebrate on the 7th, most have switched to the 25th. The switch to the 25th seems irreversible, at least on territories that are not under occupation.
Christmas celebrations still have a much more secular character relative to say the US.
