Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday denounced an "inhumane" attack from Russia, which launched over 170 missiles and drones on his war-torn country's power grid on Christmas Day, killing one and causing widespread blackouts.

"Putin deliberately chose Christmas to attack. What could be more inhumane? More than 70 missiles, including ballistic missiles, and more than a hundred attack drones. The target is our energy system," Zelensky said.

Engineers were working to repair the system, as regional officials reported power cuts. "Christmas morning has once again shown that nothing is sacred for the aggressor country," said Svitlana Onyshchuk, the head of the Ivano-Frankivsk region. She said part of the region was without electricity "at a time when we celebrate one of the greatest religious holidays -- the bright Christmas."

Putin the orc behaves like an orc.

He isn't human, that's why he can't act humanely.

Death to putin

At least Ukraine has some time to prepare to shut down Russia's Christmas..

I'm on Ukraines side here but I feel like the date doesn't make the attack any worse, after all if the tables were turned we'd be cheering regardless of it being christmas.

WWI the soldiers stopped fighting for one day during xmas. The least the russians could do is act like humans... but that's to much to ask from orcs
