Public sentiment is sharply divided regarding the Ukraine conflict and recent energy infrastructure attacks. Many commenters support Ukraine's military actions and highlight the need for justice and retaliation against Russia, while others express critical views towards Ukraine's leadership and the continuation of hostilities. A sense of frustration over the protracted war and its humanitarian impacts is prevalent, with calls for negotiations gaining traction amidst these opposing views.

At this point, it's whoever can cause an energy crash first.

Russia taking advantage of the very last days of the Gaza war to do as much lasting damage as possible to civilian infrastructure as this news cycle defense shield comes to an end. 
Hopefully.

What was it that Zelensky said yesterday about striking Russian Energy Infrastructure if Russia were to strike Ukraine's?

Time for Russia to experience blackouts all over.

Inglorious555

From the article: Russia launched a large-scale drone and missile attack on Ukraine overnight on Oct. 10, killing a child and injuring at least 24 people in the country while leaving a part of Kyiv without electricity and water.

At least twelve people were injured in the capital, while a 7-year-old boy was killed and seven people were injured in the southern city of Zaporizhzhia. Five civilians were wounded in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Multiple regions introduced emergency power shutdowns amid strikes on the energy grid.

The attacks come amid Russia's intensifying aerial campaign targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure ahead of the winter months.

Loud explosions and ballistic missiles were reported by Kyiv Independent journalists on the ground at approximately 2:30 a.m. local time as Russia carried out an attack on the Ukrainian capital. Additional explosions were reported at about 3:30 a.m.

"From the explosions that just occurred — a ballistic missile attack is ongoing. Missiles, one after another, air defense is active," Kyiv City Military Administration head Tymur Tkachenko said at 2:41 a.m., confirming reports of ballistic missiles.

Explosions and the sound of air defense systems operating were earlier reported by a journalist on the ground at about 1 a.m. local time.

Earlier in the night, at around 11:44 p.m. local time, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported on Telegram that Ukrainian air defense forces were actively countering the incoming drones.

Russia launched 465 Shahed-type attack drones and decoy drones, as well as 32 cruise and ballistic missiles, against Ukraine overnight, the Air Force reported.

Ukrainian air defenses reportedly intercepted 405 Russian drones and 15 missiles. Russia deployed the Iskander-M or KN-23 ballistic missiles, the Iskander-K cruise missiles, the Kh-59/69 aerial missiles, and the hypersonic Kinzhal missiles in the attack.

Moscow was "targeting everything that sustains normal life, everything the Russians want to deprive us of," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Eight out of the 12 people injured in the capital have been hospitalized, Klitschko reported.

"In Kyiv, due to strikes on critical infrastructure, there are power outages," he added as Russia targeted the Ukrainian capital's critical infrastructure.

A Kyiv Independent journalist in the city was left without water and power amid the strikes on the capital.

The part of the city east of the Dnipro River was left without electricity, and there are issues with Kyiv's water supply, Klitschko reported at 3:34 a.m.

Local authorities also reported disruptions to public transportation, including the metro, due to the outages.

In the Pecherskyi district, emergency services extinguished a fire in a burning residential building caused by falling drone debris, Klitschko said, adding that several floors had caught fire before the blaze was brought under control.

Thanks for not removing the watermark like some people do for their channels. This guy doing a great job

Before I get my hopes up, what's the devil's advocate take on this? Damage is not sufficient, can be repaired? Russia will find a working defense? Flamingo not accurate enough? Or just mutual destruction pounding both countries into the stone age 

United_Ad6480

Nice to see the other way around for a change

Natharius

can we just move it fast-forward and have one Ai fight another AI for dominance? this is evolution of warfare, id cray cray crazy.

This is very good. Next can they get those Tomahawks?

Since the article may be paywalled:

&gt;The U.S. has been helping Ukraine mount long-range strikes on Russian energy facilities for months in a joint effort to weaken the economy and force President Vladimir Putin to the negotiating table, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.

&gt;U.S. intelligence has helped Kyiv strike important Russian energy assets, including oil refineries, far beyond the front line, the newspaper said, citing unnamed Ukrainian and U.S. officials familiar with the campaign.

&gt;The White House, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's office and Ukraine's foreign ministry did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment. There was no immediate comment from the Russian foreign ministry.

&gt;Moscow said this month that Washington and its NATO alliance were regularly supplying intelligence to Kyiv in the war Putin launched in February 2022.

&gt;"The supply and use of the entire infrastructure of NATO and the United States to collect and transfer intelligence to Ukrainians is obvious," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters then.

&gt;The FT said U.S. intelligence helps Kyiv shape route planning, altitude, timing and mission decisions, enabling Ukraine's long-range, one-way attack drones to evade Russian air defences.

&gt;The United States is closely involved in all stages of planning, it said, citing three people familiar with the operation. A U.S. official was quoted as saying Ukraine selected the targets for long-range strikes and Washington then provided intelligence on the sites' vulnerabilities.

&gt;Early this month two U.S. officials told Reuters that Washington would provide Ukraine with intelligence on long-range energy infrastructure targets in Russia, as it weighs whether to send Kyiv missiles that could be used in such strikes.

&gt;The U.S. also asked NATO allies to provide similar support, the U.S. officials said.

&gt;Zelenskiy said on Saturday he had discussed Russian attacks on the Ukrainian energy system in a "positive and productive" call with U.S. President Donald Trump.

&gt;"We discussed opportunities to bolster our air defense, as well as concrete agreements that we are working on to ensure this. There are good options and solid ideas on how to truly strengthen us," Zelenskiy posted on X.

I sense there is an ulterior motive to my country's policy shift, namely $$$. I'm all for it, but the US is probably making a concerted effort behind the scenes to sell more LNG and refined oil to Russia's customers at the same time they help enable Ukraine's 'kinetic sanctions'. Gives our oil and gas companies tremendous leverage to literally take a player off the market. This all applies to Saudi Arabia and OPEC+, they are scavenging the corpse and eating market share in China and India right now.

I think the value of intelligence US (and other NATO members, but mainly US) provides to Ukraine is difficult to overestimate. This is true even when the cost to US is negligible. For example, the satellites are already there and data about Russia is routinely collected anyway.

And real time targeting information is as lethal as anything physical US could send to Ukraine. Should Tomahawks be sent, TERCOM data will be as valuable as the missiles themselves.

forkedquality

of course and makes sense...trump wants to sell US oil to the europeans and stop the russians sell their oil all over the planet. so he works WITH ukraine.

captain-lowrider

Hmm. For Trump, it would be easy to brag with that even if it wasn't true.

Ukraine would not dare to contradict.

mfro001

Alternative headline: Trump administration unnecessarily prolonged the war in Ukraine by demanding that Ukraine cease the attacks that were giving them leverage. FOR NO FUCKING REASON.


Fuck Trump and fuck CNN.

TessierSendai

Trump tries to take credit for anything that goes well, and blames others for his failures.

Whole thing is bullshit,  USA has no levrage on ukraine now,  because they dont help out at all outside starlink. Weapons are bought with EU money.
I doubt any information has value,  and this isnt Biden that had levrage with weapons,  this is trump owned by putin that is lying that he will send tomahawks, and people still belive in this clown.

Forsaken-Action8051

thats what i saod before. and it was the first chance for putin. now he has a second chance in budapest. if putin doesn't act, tomahawks will do.

Recent drone strikes by Ukraine have targeted critical Russian energy facilities, including gas processing plants and oil refineries, which illustrates ongoing strategic warfare.
