🚨 RUSSIA INTENSIFIES STRIKES ON UKRAINE'S ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE

Ukraine is facing another wave of attacks on its electricity network as Russia continues targeting critical infrastructure ahead of winter.

🇺🇦 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that Russian strikes hit substations, transformers and power lines across four regions: Dnipropetrovsk, Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr and Khmelnytskyi.

⚡ THE IMPACT:
• Hundreds of thousands of households were left without electricity.
• More than 650 settlements in Zhytomyr region reportedly lost power.
• Emergency repair crews have been deployed to restore electricity.

Ukraine also reported a large-scale Russian drone assault, with hundreds of drones launched during the wider attack.

⚠️ WHY IT MATTERS

With winter approaching, attacks on electricity infrastructure threaten heating, water supplies, hospitals and essential services.

The humanitarian consequences could extend far beyond the immediate damage to power facilities.

Is Ukraine's energy infrastructure becoming the next decisive battlefield as winter approaches?
