Russia escalated attacks on Ukraine, blaming Ukraine for the attack on the bridge linking Crimea with Russia. Attacks targeting power plants have plunged cities including the capital Kiev into darkness. Ukrainian President Zelensky, who has said that 3 power plants have been attacked by Russia in the last 24 hours, said that although the renovation work is going on in full swing, it will take a long time to fully restore it.
Power plants have been targeted and destroyed, affecting hundreds of towns and villages across Ukraine.
