Russia's 612 attacks on Ukraine's energy grid in 2025 left millions without power, prompting emergency measures and international aid.

With 612 Russian attacks on infrastructure in the last year, Ukraine's energy grid is facing an unprecedented crisis that has left hundreds of thousands of people without heat or power during a harsh winter. Kyiv uses half as much electricity as it needs, necessitating emergency measures like extended access to heating centers and decreased lighting. International funding for repairs and energy resilience has increased, including €60 million from Germany, £20 million from the UK, and $200 million from Norway. While leaders emphasize the need for ongoing assistance and foreign missile defenses, Ukraine is increasing imports to meet half of its electricity needs.
