Ukraine has implemented emergency power outages across six regions following what officials characterized as a “massive” missile assault from Russia, according to the national grid operator’s announcement on Wednesday.
Kyiv’s air force had issued warnings about multiple missile groups being launched by Russia during a nationwide air-raid alert, although there were no immediate reports of any damage.
Ukrenergo stated that power cuts were enacted in the regions of Kharkiv, Sumy, Poltava, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kirovohrad.
In a separate update, Ukrainian Energy Minister German Galushchenko mentioned on social media that “preventative measures” related to the distribution system were also being implemented. Russia has consistently targeted Ukraine’s energy infrastructure with air strikes as its ground forces continue their offensive in the ongoing invasion that has persisted for three years.
