Russo-Ukrainian war, day 1714: Russia launches one of largest attacks on Ukraine’s power grid of war
Russia fires 59 cruise missiles at Ukraine’s grid and bombs a Kharkiv hospital hours before Americans vote.
On day 1714 of the Russo-Ukrainian war, Russia launched one of the largest attacks on Ukraine’s power grid, as reported by military sources. Four boats, each carrying two soldiers, attempted to land troops in Kherson under foggy conditions. However, the operation ended with one death and the capture of three soldiers. Ukraine’s Southern Defense Forces believe Russia is preparing a bridgehead at Kherson’s Korabel district to retake the city.
Russian drones are monitoring the roads in Donetsk Oblast, yet not the nearly 6 km route that Ukraine has set up underground. Troops are using motorcycles and quad bikes to navigate this route, with wounded soldiers being evacuated through the same path. Additionally, Russian forces maintained a presence at an aviation school adjacent to Luhansk’s dead airfield.
A week following the last strike, Ukraine retaliated again, with the first attack lasting several hours and causing power outages in the city.
