Russian strike on Ukrenergo substation leaves house-sized crater

A Russian strike on an Ukrenergo electrical substation has created a crater the size of a house, according to the Ukrainian grid operator. Ukrenergo stated that Russia has changed tactics this year, significantly intensifying attacks on the energy sector with drones and ballistic missiles around the clock. Repeated strikes destroy equipment before repair work can be completed, and protective structures cannot fully safeguard it. Repair crews are working around the clock in bad weather and under the constant threat of further attacks to restore power. Ukrenergo thanked its specialists for their daily efforts to bring electricity back to Ukrainians.
