The regions affected included Vinnytsia, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, Zhytomyr, Rivne, Odesa, Chernihiv, Chernivtsi, Khmelnytsky, and Kharkiv. Russia's attacks specifically targeted power plants, transmission and distribution system substations, and combined heat and power plants.\n\nThe Ministry of Energy reported that the enemy had already carried out more than 20 attacks on energy infrastructure in the past 24 hours, with the attacks still ongoing in some regions. The most severely impacted electricity supply situation was found in the Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, and Kharkiv regions, which experienced significant damage to their energy infrastructure.\n\nDue to the damage to equipment, the transmission of electricity to consumers was disrupted in these regions. Additionally, emergency cutoffs were implemented in the Kyiv, Kyiv, Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, Cherkasy, and Kharkiv regions due to equipment damage and voltage drops in the high-voltage network. Nationwide, electricity consumption restriction measures were being enforced in most regions.\n\nEmergency recovery work on damaged energy facilities was being conducted wherever security conditions allowed, with power engineers working around the clock without any days off, as emphasized by the Ministry of Energy.",
