Previous attacks by Russian troops


Recently, Russian troops launched the largest strike on Ukraine's gas extraction facilities since the beginning of the war. The targets were located in Kharkiv and Poltava regions.


Also, on the night of October 7, Russian troops attacked Kharkiv using drones. The industrial area of the city was hit. Furthermore, on October 6, Russian terrorists again violated the energy infrastructure of Donetsk region, leaving some populated areas without electricity.



In the challenging conflict in eastern Ukraine, Russian troops are not reducing the intensity of their attacks, and there is a noticeable escalation of the situation at the front. These new attacks demonstrate Moscow's intention to continue military actions on the territory of the neighboring country.
