Russia has refused to meet the preconditions for a ceasefire, leaving Ukraine facing the winter without a diplomatic agreement to protect its energy infrastructure.

Strikes reportedly hit Ukrainian power plants, intensifying concerns about the country's ability to keep heating and electricity running through the cold months.
Why now: Russian strikes on Ukraine's power grid and the absence of ceasefire talks are raising alarm as winter approaches.
