Moscow has escalated assaults on power infrastructure over the past few days, while the country's government has called for "real steps" from international partners to increase pressure on Moscow.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the US, the EU and the Group of Seven - in providing defensive weapons and enforcing penalties," he wrote in a public message.

Multiple people hurt in the strikes on the city have been hospitalized, according to city authorities.

The assaults follow nights of air raids in the territory, portions of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
The entire country is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are harder to spot.
Authorities told reporters that Russia was deliberately attempting to demolish the country's energy grid, with attacks already affecting energy systems.
