Russian drones and missiles targeted power plants in east-central Ukraine overnight from Thursday to Friday. In total, ten regions across the country were targeted and six people, including a child, were injured, Ukraine's Interior Ministry said.

But, in Brussels as in Washington, political divisions have hampered the delivery of arms and the sending of funds in recent months.
