The eleventh attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure this year occurred amid uncertainty about the new U.S. administration's response. Russian President Putin blamed Ukraine for using American-made missiles to target inside Russia, despite claims of widespread civilian impact. The attack lasted over nine hours, with civilians seeking refuge in various locations. The weather forecast predicts temperatures below 35 degrees Fahrenheit and snow in Kyiv.
The 11th attack this year on Ukraine's energy infrastructure comes amid uncertainty about how President-elect Donald Trump might deal with the conflict.
Ukraine said it had detected 188 incoming “attack targets,” including 57 cruise missiles fired from Tupolev Tu-95 bombers, 28 Kalibr cruise missiles fired from ships in the Black Sea, and 97 Iran-designed Shahed drones, according to a post by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.“Again, energy system is under a massive attack from the enemy,” Ukraine’s energy minister, Herman Halushchenko, wrote in a post on social media. “Attacks on energy facilities are taking place all over Ukraine.
Putin gave details of the attack at a summit in Kazakhstan of the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organization. Worst hit were several western regions that do not often face Russian attack. As of Thursday morning, some 523,000 homes and businesses in the Lviv region were without power, Governor Maksym Kozytskyi wrote on Telegram.
