Ukraine hits Russian military assets following energy grid attacks
Russian strikes on Ukraine's energy grid cause mass blackouts, while Kyiv targets Russian military installations as diplomatic focus moves to upcoming peace talks in Abu Dhabi.
Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities have triggered widespread power outages, leaving over 850,000 customers in the Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv regions without electricity. Energy providers have initiated emergency cutoffs and stabilization schedules as Ukraine prepares for severe winter conditions, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy highlighting the expanded scale of recent aerial attacks.
In response, Ukrainian forces launched targeted strikes against Russian military positions in occupied Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia, hitting logistical hubs, ammunition depots, and a satellite communications jamming system.
On the diplomatic front, attention is turning toward upcoming peace negotiations in Abu Dhabi aimed at discussing security guarantees for Kyiv. The talks coincide with statements from U.S. President-elect Donald Trump asserting that "the war will end soon," as frontline clashes continue.
