Since the beginning of the war, 32,000 civilian facilities and about 700 infrastructure facilities have been damaged in Ukraine as a result of shelling. This was stated by First Deputy Interior Minister Yevgeny Yenin, his words are quoted by Hromadske.
Private or apartment buildings suffered the most damage among civilian targets, Yenin said, with military targets accounting for only 3% of recorded shelling.
Among the infrastructure facilities, airfields, bridges, oil depots, electrical substations, etc. were destroyed.
“The government is preparing for similar attacks, and I know that the majority of Ukrainians are the same. We cannot be broken," Yenin added.
On November 23, Russia once again attacked Ukrainian energy facilities. As a result of the shelling, interruptions began in the work of all operating nuclear power plants controlled by Kyiv, the power units of the South Ukrainian and Khmelnitsky nuclear power plants were turned off, and the Rivne nuclear power plant was transferred to emergency mode. Almost all regions of Ukraine introduced emergency power outages, and Kyiv was almost completely left without electricity. Also, due to Russian shelling, half of Moldova was left without electricity.
In total, the Russian military has already carried out seven large-scale missile attacks on energy infrastructure: on October 10, 11, 17 and 31, as well as on November 11, 15 and 23. On the afternoon of November 23, air defenses shot down 5 attack drones and 51 of about 70 missiles. Then the blows fell on 16 critical infrastructure facilities, as a result of which emergency blackouts began to be introduced in the country.
All over Ukraine, including in Kyiv, “points of indestructibility” have been set up where you can warm up and charge your phones.
