Ukraine’s energy infrastructure takes a hit

Ukraine’s energy infrastructure takes a hit. Ukraine in Flames #233

Russia has been waging a war of annihilation against Ukraine for over eight months — and the Ukrainian army heroically deals with it. Now, the aggressor’s strategy also includes energy war.

Russia’s attacking energy infrastructure across the country not only pushes Ukraine to compromise with Russia but also causes maximum damage to the country’s economy.

However, the aggressor’s plan led to exactly the opposite: Ukrainians became even more united to resist the enemy, saving electricity to prevent total blackouts. Now, Ukraine has enough electricity to meet the users’ needs but the equipment which is used for distribution, was deliberately destroyed by Russia, on the eve of winter, the help of Western partners in this sphere is a wieściom of survival for Ukrainian civilians.

DTEK Group press secretary Antosha Antonina, the President of DiXi Group Olena Pavlenko, and former MP, now part of International Center for Ukrainian Victory, Victoria Voytsitska discuss the destruction and disruption caused to Ukraine’s energy sector by Russia’s bombings.
