Russia’s Strikes Push Ukraine’s Power Grid to the Brink

Russia has unleashed one of its largest coordinated assaults on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, targeting power plants, substations, and transmission lines across the country. Ukrainian authorities reported hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles launched in waves, overwhelming air‑defense systems and causing widespread blackouts.

The attacks struck at a critical moment, as winter temperatures continue to drop and energy demand rises. Emergency outages were imposed in multiple regions, with repair crews unable to begin full restoration while strikes were still ongoing. Officials warned that the scale of the damage has deepened the national power deficit and could lead to prolonged disruptions.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the bombardment, saying Russia is deliberately attempting to break civilian resilience by weaponizing cold weather. He urged Ukraine’s international partners to accelerate support for air defenses and energy repairs, stressing that millions of people are now facing winter with unstable access to heat and electricity.
