The Minister of Energy of Ukraine stated that the enemy is trying to cause as much harm to Ukraine's energy in the winter. And how the target chooses generation and electricity. The head of the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine Herman Galushchenko stated that the missile strike caused by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on November 15 on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine was the largest since the beginning of the active phase of war. The minister reported this on his Facebook page.

Galushchenko estimates, it is the most massive firing of the power system since the beginning of the war, which, to everything, can affect not only the Ukrainian power system, but also the power systems of neighboring countries. Damage is observed throughout the Ukrainian power system: these are generation facilities and electricity transmission. Therefore, emergency shutdowns are introduced.
