Russian Shelling Leaves Donetsk Region Without Power: A Rapid Dismantling of Energy Infrastructure

On the morning of October 12, residents of Donetsk region faced a serious crisis caused by large-scale enemy shelling targeting the area’s energy infrastructure.

According to the Donetsk Military Administration, significant parts of the region were rendered powerless, creating major issues with electricity supply for thousands of local residents.

Details are still being clarified, and experts indicate that Russian forces deliberately targeted energy facilities to deepen the humanitarian crisis and undermine the daily life of Ukrainians.

Repair efforts have already begun, but the timeframe for restoring power remains unknown.

The authorities have not specified whether the entire region was affected or only parts of it under Ukrainian control.
