Russia has launched its 11th large-scale missile and drone attack on Ukraine’s energy system since the start of the year.

This was reported by Ukrenergo on Telegram: “Energy workers are doing everything possible to quickly restore equipment damaged by the enemy... Overnight and in the morning, the enemy carried out another massive missile and drone attack on Ukraine’s energy system, the 11th since the beginning of the year. Energy facilities in several regions were damaged,” Ukrenergo stated.

The company also noted, “During the air raid, emergency power outages were implemented and are still in effect. We remind you that during emergency outages, previously announced hourly outage schedules do not apply. Additional information will be provided when the emergency outages are lifted... There is still a significant power deficit.

Emergency repairs are ongoing at energy facilities. Once the emergency outages are lifted, updated information will be provided regarding the schedule and scope of hourly power outages for residential consumers. Check your region’s current outage schedule on the website or official pages of the distribution system operator (Oblenergo).”

Earlier reports indicated that on Nov. 28, Russia launched Kalibr and Kh-101 missiles from Tu-95MS bombers. The occupiers also deployed attack drones against Ukraine.

The Energy Ministry reported a large-scale attack on energy infrastructure across all regions, leading to emergency power outages.

In Kyiv, air defense systems intercepted all threats to the capital. Debris fell in the Dniprovskyi and Darnytskyi districts, but no casualties were reported.

Cities including Rivne, Zhytomyr, Kherson, Lviv, and Mykolaiv experienced power and water supply disruptions.

Infrastructure damage was reported by the Kyiv Oblast Military Administration (OVA), Ivano-Frankivsk OVA, Volyn OVA, Sumy OVA, and other regions.

In Vinnytsia and Odesa oblasts, private homes were damaged by missile strikes, and several people were injured.
