Russia launched multiple attacks on energy facilities across Ukraine on Wednesday, according to Ukrainian officials.
In the seven strikes in the northeastern city of Kharkiv, at least six people were injured and non-residential infrastructure was damaged, said Kharkiv Governor Oleg Synegubov.
In western Ukraine, Russian cruise missiles struck energy infrastructure in the Ivano-Frankivsk region, causing power outages in parts of the area, according to the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional State Administration.
The central Dnipropetrovsk region also suffered a major assault on its energy infrastructure, Dnipropetrovsk Governor Serhiy Lysak said on Telegram, without providing further details.
Ukraine’s largest private energy company DTEK reported significant damage to equipment at its thermal power plants.
The state-run energy company Ukrenergo announced emergency power outages following the strikes, which marked the 13th massive attack on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure this year.
