Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Russian Strikes Leave Hundreds Of Thousands Without Power In Ukraine
Caption: Russian Strikes Leave Hundreds Of Thousands Without Power In Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russian strikes on energy infrastructure have left hundreds of thousands of families without electricity. Russian attacks overnight targeted energy facilities across the Dnipro, Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr and Khmelnytskyi regions. Zelensky said substations, transformers and power lines supplying Ukrainian homes were among the infrastructure targeted. The president described the intensity of the strikes as "extremely high" as crews worked to restore electricity supplies. Russia has repeatedly targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, disrupting power and heating supplies as colder weather approaches. The latest attacks came despite a temporary energy ceasefire announced by President Donald Trump in October. Ukraine paused drone strikes on Russian oil refineries for 72 hours following the announcement, while Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure continued. Russian authorities also reported a major Ukrainian drone attack overnight on an industrial facility in the Nizhny Novgorod region.
