Fox News' senior foreign affairs correspondent Greg Palkot reports from Kyiv on how Ukrainians are coping under Russian drone and missile attacks.. As their progress slows on the battle front, Russian forces have been targeting civilian infrastructure. With winter closing in, and power, heat and water going, it could be Moscow’s most dangerous tactic.
"Militarily it’s absolutely nothing," Ukrainian Member of Parliament Oleksiy Goncharenko explained,"but yes, it can cause a lot of suffering for civilians." The numbers tell the tale. Some 450,000 people were without power in Kyiv in the past week and nearly 5 million nationwide. Some 40% of the electrical grid has been damaged as well as 80% of the power plants.
