KYIV, Ukraine – The key eastern Ukraine city of Pokrovsk is without a drinking water supply or natural gas for cooking and heating, authorities said Thursday, as the Russian army´s attritional slog across the Donetsk region lays waste to public infrastructure and forces civilians to flee their homes.
Russian troops backed by artillery and powerful glide bombs have turned Donetsk cities and towns such as Bakhmut and Avdiivka into bombed-out shells, though the push has cost Russia heavily in troops and armor. Russia has fired missile and drone barrages at Ukraine just about every day since the war began in February 2022, aiming especially at the power grid and potentially dooming Ukrainians to a bitterly cold winter this year.
An overnight drone attack on Konotop, a town in Ukraine´s northern Sumy region, largely knocked out the electricity supply, regional officials said. Ukraine has expressed frustration that its Western partners won´t let it use sophisticated modern weapons they supply to hit places inside Russia where the missiles and drones are launched from. Some Western leaders fear that would trigger an escalation of the war.
