KHARKIV, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Power blackouts and cuts in water supply hit several areas of Ukraine's northeastern region of Kharkiv on Sunday as Russian attacks hit infrastructure sites, the region's governor said.

"The (Russian) occupiers have struck critical infrastructure in the city and region of Kharkiv," Olegh Synehubov wrote on Telegram.

"In several population centres, there are no electrical or water supplies. Fires have broken out where these strikes occurred and emergency crews ... are containing the blazes."

This means Russia no longer is confining themselves to a, "special operation."

The message, to the Ukes and the West, is that all of Ukraine could be without water and power within hours if Russia chooses to make it happen.

What a mess. A humanitarian crisis with massive immigration, and at the same time the Russians could entirely cut off the natural gas.

I guess Brussels has thought of that already and has a plan.

Other than moving troops into Ukraine, I don't know what it would be, though.

OK, fire away

This is where the Putin Stooges, if they are consistent, come in and blame the Ukrainians for not being wilful slaves to Russia for electricity and water.

Indeed.

Just ran across this mention concerning NATO actions against Serbia that indicate the similarity.

“Attacks on power infrastructure were tipping point in NATO’s war against Serbia. Started in April - daily blackouts and water restrictions. Refrigerators stoped working, storing and preparing food became a problem. Within a month support for war dwindled, in June we surrendered.”

No, it wouldnt have happened under Trump.
Putin wouldn’t have dared. And the US “deep state” and MSM would have complained bitterly about the dangerous Mr. Trump.
So it goes.

It appears that Russia adapted US standards of taking out infrastructure.

Notice:
1. Zaporozhe nuclear plant has been turned off.
2. Kharkov province has been cut off from the Russian electricity network.
3. Missile attacks on several power plants.
4. Ukrainians cut off two remaining nuclear plants themselves — apparently due to disbalancing of the system.

I’d further notice that that 1. occurred before the Great Ukrainian Counter-offensive and also that 2. would have not been possible to do with Russian forces remaining in Kharkov province.

This is beginning to look like a design.

All right, perhaps we will see how the Nazis adapt to a world without electricity.

The Russians turned it back on in March. I think the Ukes are again in a position to turn it off.

And then there is Belgorod, etc.

Their brains get cold in Chummyland, and it makes it hard for them to think.

There is reality which must be faced here. Putin is not going to allow the Russians to endure the humiliation of losing this war. He will do whatever it takes too achieve something that can be called success. This is a serious and dangerous as hell. We keep sending billions and weaponry that is way beyond what the Ukraine had and none of us know what the consequences are going to be.
