Russia targets Ukrainian energy grid as EU warns against hybrid attacks

Moscow has launched a new targeted campaign to destroy Ukraine's energy infrastructure, while continuing regular drone strikes on Kyiv. The intensified attacks on the Ukrainian capital follow President Volodymyr Zelensky's address at the UN General Assembly, where he condemned Russian aggression.

In response to ongoing hostilities, Ukrainian drone strikes against Russian oil refineries have disrupted local fuel supplies, prompting Moscow to purchase fuel abroad.

Meanwhile, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that the European Union is "ready to respond" to security threats, asserting that attacks on European soil will not be tolerated. Her statements follow the identification by German authorities of two suspects linked to Moscow involved in explosive drone incidents near Leipzig.
