08.11.2025 โข The Day Ukraine's Energy Grid Collapsed
โจUkrainian media extensively covered the devastating impact of overnight Russian attacks on infrastructure. Early reports detailed a drone strike on a Dnipro residential building, causing casualties, and widespread attacks on energy infrastructure. By midday, attention shifted to the profound damage, with Ukrinform and UNIAN reporting that all Centrenergo stations ceased operation, leading to a complete halt in electricity generation and necessitating emergency power outages across Kyiv and other regions. These energy concerns overshadowed reports of ongoing intense fighting, including 181 combat engagements, and troop rotation challenges in the Pokrovsk direction. The severe energy crisis became the dominant narrative, marking a critical turning point in the day's events.
