Kyiv says power grid stabilising but wary of major missile attack on invasion anniversary
Intense fighting continued further south around the towns of Bakhmut and Vuhledar in Donetsk region, which Ukraine says the Kremlin wants to capture before the anniversary of the invasion following months of only minor gains and major casualties for Russia’s military.
“The Kremlin may launch another series of missile strikes on civilian targets throughout Ukraine to mark the symbolic anniversary as actual military success continues to evade the Russian military.” Despite Russia targeting Ukraine’s power infrastructure with missile attacks again on Thursday, state energy firm Ukrenergo said on Friday that there had been “no power deficit in the energy system for the entire working week and none is currently forecast. Power plants are producing enough electricity to cover current consumption”.
