Major Ukraine power plant destroyed by Russian strikes

Kyiv’s biggest power plant was completely destroyed in the early hours of this morning during targeted air raids against energy infrastructure in Ukraine.
Russia launched 82 missiles and drones, many of them directed at substations and generation facilities in Odesa, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Lviv, and Kyiv regions. Roughly a third evaded air defences.
Centrenergo, one of the country’s largest energy providers, said that its Trypillya power plant, just outside Kyiv, had been totally levelled during the raid. The facility was the largest provider of electricity for three regions in central Ukraine - Kyiv, Cherkasy and Zhytomyr.

Time for Ukraine to throw in the towel.

@philkeyouz2157 Ukraine ask for this when they target their oil. what do you think would happen? Ukraine will not stop sure, and so as Russia when it comes on striking critical infrastructure that contributes to their electricity or economy.

Soviets built all that. You want to turn your back on that build everything yourselves 😅😅

But how? We were told Russia ran out of missiles? Were these from those shovels?

this was not shovels, this damage was from washing machines dropped from plane made of wood.

The byline of the article says the power plant was in Kyiv but the video itself says it was in Kharkiv.

@@Leaf411 this was not a nuclear plant.

[@user-cb2df9zy6d]

At the same time, two power plants were destroyed, in Kharkov and Kyiv. The problem is that these power plants can quickly respond to the load, but nuclear ones, for example, cannot. The largest company that owned these power plants stated that it no longer has such power plants. This is a big problem.

Brave Russian army

[@RUTHLESSambition5]

This is what attrition looks like. This couldn't have happened last year. Russia systematically took out air defense 1 by 1 by 1 or wore them down. This is modern warfare. No more blitz. drones will destroy you

[@PoolaNoLapro]

Why Ukraine people choosing this and why's they don't want white flags

[@Chaldon-hl6yk]

The reason is simple - Ukrs believe that after death they will be reincarnated in California and the whole world is trying to help them with this

[@user-kr6ui1cd8f]

What mean white flag? People must understand. Just making from people slaves, or what or genocide ?

Wonder if B Johnson is planning to cough up a bit of dough to repair this. Being such an ardent supporter of action to convince Ukraine renege on it's peace treaty. Then again not much effort expended to convince the latter as it was receipt of inequivocal support by UK and it's robust initiative to defend the country against gratuitous Russian aggression.
