Russian occupiers have once again launched an attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure in the temporarily occupied Kherson region, destroying one of the key energy supply facilities, as reported by the Kherson Regional Military Administration
It is known that Russian troops fired artillery for over a day at the target until it was completely destroyed, which caused widespread power supply problems in the region. According to the head of the region, Oleksandr Prokudin, the situation remains tense, as the enemy cynically violated all agreements and deliberately attacked an object that provided vital services to the city and villages under Ukrainian control. In his Telegram channel, he stated that for at least a day, the facility was subject to intensive shelling from artillery and unmanned aerial vehicles, including kamikaze drones. Throughout the night, Ukrainian soldiers made every effort to repel the enemy strikes and stabilize the situation, but at the end of a tense confrontation, the occupiers achieved their goal and destroyed the energy node. Currently, energy workers are working at full capacity to restore stable electricity supply in the region. However, considering the scale of the destruction, it is expected that temporary power outages may occur in some areas in the near future. An urgent call was made to conserve electricity because, due to damage to the energy supply facility, there is a possibility of implementing emergency blackouts in the system. In the face of this threat, residents are urged to remain calm and be prepared for possible temporary restrictions on electricity supply. Authorities emphasized that energy and infrastructure services are doing everything possible to quickly stabilize the situation and bring the system back to normal operation. However, since the shelling continues and the situation remains very tense due to the cynical aggression by Russian forces, whose ruthless attack destroyed critical infrastructure facilities and caused significant difficulties for the region’s residents.
