Once again, the terrorist state is deliberately targeting civilian energy infrastructure in an attempt to leave people without power. We are doing everything possible to restore power as quickly as possible," the Regional Military Administration added.
As reported by Ukrinform, the Kherson community is experiencing power outages; as a result of a massive Russian strike with guided bombs on August 27, the local thermal power plant sustained critical damage. Due to the constant attacks on the power grid, city authorities have switched all “Points of Resilience” to round-the-clock operation.
