Russia has once again attacked Ukraine's energy sector — tens of thousands left without power
On the night of December 6, Russian drones and missiles again struck the energy infrastructure in several regions of Ukraine. According to the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine, generation, transmission, and distribution facilities in eight regions came under fire.
As a result, tens of thousands of consumers were affected by emergency outages. In some regions, power and heat restriction schedules are being introduced.
Due to threats to energy facilities, companies — including DTEK — have already declared an emergency mode and readiness for emergency repairs.
In many cities, scheduled power outages will take place; authorities are urging the population to stay calm and conserve resources — especially during nighttime hours.
On the eve of energy strikes, the government already forecasted that new attacks could force the reintroduction of schedules. So now is a critical time for the stability of the energy system.
The situation remains tense: repair crews are working around the clock, while authorities are preparing for a possible new wave of attacks. If you want — I can check which regions are currently in the worst situation (outages + damages).
