Quote: "There was an unprecedented number of missiles and an innumerable number of drones targeting the same thermal power plants that had been rebuilt after the devastating attack in 2024."

Details: Less than a month has passed since the previous strike, and last night Russia hit all Centrenergo energy generation facilities simultaneously.

Quote: "We have stopped… Energy generation now is at zero. Zero! Everything we rebuilt through round-the-clock work has been wiped out. Completely!"

More details: Centrenergo said that it will repair, rebuild and integrate new energy generation capabilities.
