The Russian army has begun destroying energy regions in Ukraine, using scorched earth tactics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was stated by the head of Ukrenergo, Vitaliy Zaychenko, during a telethon.<\/span><\/p>\n

He explained that previously the enemy had simultaneously fired hundreds of missiles at Ukrenergo stations and power plants.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, having failed to destroy the Ukrainian power system, the Russians have switched to a new tactic. They are now targeting energy districts, including substations and power plants of distribution system operators.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zaichenko stressed that thermal power plants, which are supposed to provide the population with light and heat in the winter, have been significantly damaged. However, he is convinced that a scenario where there will be no light is unlikely.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the head of Ukrenergo, more than 50% of transformers have a sufficient level of protection to withstand a “shaheed” strike.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFrom this point of view, there is confidence that we will ensure the transmission of electricity in the distribution system operators’ network,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recall that the Russian occupiers struck the energy infrastructure of a number of regions, as a result of which power restriction schedules were introduced in all regions of Ukraine<\/a> .<\/p>\n

As is known, on the night of October 17 , Russian troops carried out a massive attack with kamikaze drones on Kryvyi Rih<\/a> , targeting energy infrastructure facilities.<\/p>\n
