Emergency Power Outages in Ukraine after Russian Attacks

· updated

Ukraine has introduced power outages in large parts of the country over the weekend, following Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.

The power outages apply to all regions except three in Ukraine, after Saturday's robotic attacks on energy facilities. At least 19 people were injured in the attacks.

The power outages affect both industries and households, according to energy operator Ukrenergo.

The latest Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy grid have forced the country's leadership to implement power outages across the country.

After Saturday's attacks, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyi called for expanded weapon deliveries from the West, and said that "total protection of Ukrainian skies must become the norm".
