Russia's attack on Ukraine's power grid left half the country without electricity, risking years of blackouts.

Russia's recent attack on Ukraine's power infrastructure left 50% of the country without electricity, potentially causing rolling blackouts for up to three years. Russian forces are also surrounding key towns like Velyka Novosilka, which could provide easier access to central Ukraine. Ukrainian officials fear these towns may fall soon, giving Russia greater control over the Donbas and Eastern Ukraine. Despite the damage, Ukrainian energy workers have restored power to over 8,400 consumers.
