Situation in Kryvyi Rih and Surrounding Regions
Kryvyi Rih faced one of the most intense attacks on November 10, when Russian forces launched a heavy drone offensive aimed at the city's critical infrastructure. According to Oleksandr Vilkul, enemy drones were still active in the air. By 12:15 a.m. on November 11, parts of Kryvyi Rih experienced power outages. Water supply and sewage services were stabilized using generators. Damage extended to apartment buildings, schools, and kindergartens. Emergency crews from energy and municipal services are actively working on repairs.
In addition, the Rivne region was targeted during the night of November 10-11. In the Kostopil territorial community, three private homes were damaged, with one suffering wall and roof destruction. Preliminary reports indicate no injuries in this area. On November 10, Vinnytsia region reported two fatalities and two injuries. In Ladyzhyn, a civilian business and energy infrastructure were damaged. Kropyvnytskyi also came under fire, including an attack on the 'Epicenter' shopping center.
'The occupiers are attempting to freeze Kryvyi Rih,' stated Mykola Lukashuk.
These ongoing assaults highlight an escalation in the conflict, with Russian forces aiming to disrupt vital infrastructure across Ukraine. Restoring damaged facilities and providing aid to affected populations remain top priorities for local authorities and emergency services. The power outages in Kryvyi Rih are especially concerning, as they threaten residents' daily lives and the functioning of essential services.
'The heating situation is even more complicated,' Oleksandr Vilkul reported.
The ongoing conflict has seen devastating impacts across various regions, with recent events highlighting the severity of Russian military actions. For instance, recent strikes in the Kyiv region resulted in civilian casualties and extensive damage, further emphasizing the precarious situation faced by urban areas in Ukraine. This pattern of aggression raises concerns about the safety of residents and the resilience of critical infrastructure amid continued hostilities.
