Russian drones and missiles have been actively targeting Ukraine's energy system since October 2025. According to The Washington Post, the situation is critical — the energy network is on the verge of breaking, with the possibility of complete power outages in certain areas being coordinated.
Russia is directing attacks on power lines, trying to create 'energy islands' in Ukraine, which significantly threatens the unity of the country regarding electricity supply.
In response, Ukraine proposed an energy truce, but Russia rejects this approach, believing it is working for 'peace'. Despite this, night attacks on Ukraine's critical infrastructure continue, with Russia carrying out over 495 strikes just in recent days.
The situation remains tense, and a resolution to the conflict regarding energy supply has yet to be found.
