Putin threatens to target Kyiv 'decision-making centres' with new missile

• More than one million Ukrainians have been left without power, following the overnight assault

• Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky described the attack as a "vile escalation"

• This is the second attack on the country's energy system this month, writes the BBC's Paul Adams in Ukraine, with temperatures falling.
