After a long pause, with the onset of freezing weather, Russia resumed massive strikes.<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>Some of the missiles hit energy infrastructure facilities in Dnipropetrovsk region in a continued bid to disable the Ukrainian power system as much as possible. Given that Ukraine\u2019s grid suffered significant damage in last year\u2019s attacks, a new wave of massive missile strikes could cause even greater damage. Thus, Russia keeps trying to freeze Ukrainians to death during the coldest period of the year.<\/h5>\n<h5>Russia is revisiting missile attacks, taking advantage of winter cold, which the Kremlin seeks to weaponize to exert psychological pressure on the civilian population, while also intensifying assaults on the battlefield, reinforced by propaganda injected into Western media spaces, calling for a halt of any security assistance to Ukraine.<\/h5>\n<h5><strong>Without the help of its Western partners, including a sufficient amount of air defense capabilities, Ukraine will eventually find itself in a dire situation. This, in turn, will lead to a significant influx of refugees to European countries as people will be seeking shelter from massive shelling.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"0TItqbcHT4\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/russia-activates-kidnapping-in-the-occupied-territoriesthe-pace-special-committee-on-ukrainian-childrens-affairs-becomes-a-tool-for-countering-their-forced-deportation\/\">Russia Activates Kidnapping in the Occupied Territories:The PACE Special Committee on Ukrainian Children\u2019s Affairs Becomes a Tool for Countering Their Forced Deportation<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Russia Activates Kidnapping in the Occupied Territories:The PACE Special Committee on Ukrainian Children\u2019s Affairs Becomes a Tool for Countering Their Forced Deportation&#8221; &#8212; Pakistan In the World\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/russia-activates-kidnapping-in-the-occupied-territoriesthe-pace-special-committee-on-ukrainian-childrens-affairs-becomes-a-tool-for-countering-their-forced-deportation\/embed\/#?secret=lG7zfbAgAI#?secret=0TItqbcHT4\" data-secret=\"0TItqbcHT4\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h5>Meanwhile, Russia has returned to pre-war levels of cruise missile production.
