The enemy attacked energy infrastructure facilities in the Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Poltava, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk regions. Russia launched over 450 attack drones and 45 missiles of various types across Ukraine, targeting critical infrastructure facilities.

Power outages have been recorded in the Dnipropetrovsk, Poltava, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia, Odesa, and Kirovohrad regions.

As a result, emergency power outages have been introduced in several regions of Ukraine.

According to Minister of Energy Svitlana Grynchuk, as soon as the security situation allows, emergency services and energy workers will begin eliminating the consequences of the attack to restore power supply in the affected regions as quickly as possible. Emergency outages will be lifted once the situation in the power system stabilizes.
