Hello darkness my old friend/I’ve come to talk with you again
We’ve seen this movie before: November comes, and Russian forces unleash massive drone and missile strikes targeting the power generation and infrastructure, leading Ukraine to live in darkness and the cold.
BREAKING NEWS
Ukraine has gone dark!
All state-owned thermal power plants in Ukraine have been stopped, electricity generation is absent.

Both Ukrenergo and Centrenergo (‘zero generation’) have reported catastrophic damage.
Ukraine is currently in the worst state energy-wise of the entire special military operation.
Escalation dominance: Large-scale Russian drone & missile strikes this night hit thermal & hydro power plants in Kyiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Kremenchuk & Kaniv & other targets. There are massive power outages in Kyiv (shown in these videos) & other cities & regions of Ukraine. pic.twitter.com/HP2wzBiIg7

But since major blackouts also happened a year ago, many ask themselves why Russians take the Ukrainian energy grid to the limit but do not completely obliterate it.
Simplicius on Substack:
“Many people who want a total power grid collapse in Ukraine likely have not thought it entirely through. It would mean millions of elderly, sick, and otherwise helpless people suffering and going on the brink—a situation that would be seized upon with glee by the Western press machine and turned into a second Holodomor such that even Russia’s allies would balk at their continued support.”
