Russia launches massive air attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure

Russia unleashed a massive aerial attack on Friday in what Ukrainian officials said was the largest and most destructive assault on its energy infrastructure since the start of the war.

Over 150 missiles and drones were involved in the bombardment, striking targets across the Ukraine, according to the Ukrainian air force, knocking out power to swathes of the country and badly damaging its largest hydroelectric power station. It was the second largest aerial attack on Ukraine since Russia began its invasion two years ago, the air force said.

The strikes forced emergency shut downs of electricity in at least seven regions, including Odesa, Dnipro, Poltava, Zaporizhzhia and Kirovohrad, according to Ukraine’s state energy company. Officials in Ukraine’s second largest city, Kharkiv, said it was entirely without power following the attacks.

"The morning attack by the Russians on the energy system of Ukraine was the largest ever,” Volodymyr Kudrytskyi, the head of Ukrenergo said in a statement.

Ukraine is not Nazi...this is as dumb as calling Trump a Nazi.

They are corrupt and not worth supporting. No need to go the nazi route.

Vlad has shown much restraint- maybe he is finally taking his gloves off?…..on another note, the US Army just issued mobilization orders for retired Army up to the age of 70…..and not a word from western MSM….i would think mobilizing retired military would be newsworthy.

Putin is MIA tonight. Refusing to address the citizens of Russia to reassure them after the attack. Not stronk.

How long will Putin hide from the Russian people and finally make a statement on the terror attack?

Yeah I know about it but as usual you are exaggerating and trying to mislead people.

“”””the US Army just issued mobilization orders for retired Army up to the age of 70””””

That is very dramatic, here is the document. https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/ARN40510-ALARACT_0172024-000-WEB-1.pdf

I probably missed that post

I’m expecting World War III before the election.

Tinfoil of course but they’ve already tried so many other things nothing surprises me anymore.
