Zelensky Pleads with Ukrainians to Preserve Energy as Power System Crippled

News - Middle East: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has appealed to the nation to preserve energy as winter is on the horizon and the country will be facing power cuts at least until the end of March.


Zelensky accused Russia of inflicting "systematic damage to our energy system" by targeting the country's power-generating facilities.

"The systematic damage to our energy system from strikes by the Russian terrorists is so considerable that all our people and businesses should be mindful and redistribute their consumption throughout the day," Zelensky said in his nightly video address.

He made the remarks as authorities said millions of people, including in the capital, Kiev, could face power cuts at least until the end of March.

Ukraine's national grid operator Ukrenergo said Russian missile strikes had wreaked "colossal" damage to power facilities. Ukrenergo's chief Volodymyr Kudrytskyi said on Tuesday that practically no thermal or hydroelectric stations had been left unscathed, though he denied there was a need to evacuate civilians. "We cannot generate as much energy as consumers can use," Kudrytskyi told a briefing.

Russia has previously denied the remarks made by Ukrainian authorities that it is targeting civilian infrastructure, saying its forces only target military-linked facilities.

Ukraine has been at war with Russia since February 24, when Russian President Vladimir Putin declared what he called "a special military operation" against Ukraine. The Russian president said the offensive was meant to "de-Nazify" Ukraine.
