Russia again attacked Ukraine's gas infrastructure late on Dec. 1 and on the morning of Dec. 2, the state-owned oil and gas company Naftogaz Ukraine reported on Telegram.

"Drones targeted civilian facilities ensuring gas production and storage. Fortunately, none of the workers were injured. But there is damage," the message reads.

Operational services and company specialists are working to address the attack's aftermath.

On Oct. 9, Bloomberg reported that Russian forces had destroyed more than half of Ukraine's gas production in recent days, including through massive strikes on the Kharkiv and Poltava oblasts. In Kyiv, concerns are growing that damaged facilities cannot be repaired before winter's end, the outlet noted.

On Nov. 8, Naftogaz reported that overnight Russia conducted its ninth massive attack on Ukraine's civilian gas infrastructure since early October. Russian troops again used missiles and drones, deliberately targeting facilities that provide heat to homes.

On Nov. 26, Naftogaz Ukraine for the first time showed one of its central Ukraine gas facilities that was hit in a massive Russian strike.

According to company employees, the Russians deliberately struck a liquefied gas reservoir — likely to cause a fire.
