The UN demands that Russia stop the energy attacks.
As Kayoko Goto, director of the Europe and Central Asia Division of the United Nations Political Department, said during the Security Council meeting, the consequences of Russia's attacks on energy facilities are becoming "more serious": last weekend, as a result of attacks in eastern Ukraine, approximately 600,000 more people were left without electricity.
"The UN Secretary-General reiterates his call for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire as an important step towards a just, lasting and comprehensive peace in Ukraine in accordance with international law, in particular the UN Charter and relevant resolutions," Goto said.
