Russia's attacks on Ukrainian water and energy supplies are aimed at exacerbating human suffering and are particularly heinous, U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters on Tuesday.

Ukraine said it shot most of those missiles down, but some had hit power stations, knocking out electricity and water supplies.
