The Russian army has changed the tactics of strikes on the Ukrainian energy system, focusing on attacks on individual facilities in specific regions.
Deputy Minister of Energy Mykola Kolisnyk said this during a telethon, Ukrinform reports .
“Compared to last winter, there is a change in enemy shelling. If earlier, during massive attacks on energy facilities, the enemy tried to hit everything and everywhere, now they are focusing on individual regions and individual energy facilities,” the official explained.
He added that the enemy is trying to penetrate the defenses of the facilities using various types of weapons. At the same time, the Russians are making attempts to destroy generation facilities and elements of the electricity transmission and distribution system.
According to Kolisnyk, such tactics complicate the work of specialists working on the prompt restoration of electricity supply.
