Russia has intensified its attacks and left around 10% of Kiev's population without supplies

As PresidentVolodimir Zelenski warned, Russia continues to attackUkraine 's energy system , leaving around 10% of the population in Kiev and thousands of homes and businesses in some 10 Ukrainian regions without electricity, water or gas.

According to data provided by the Ukrainian Energy Minister , Svitlana Grinchuk, at least 270,000 subscribers have temporarily run out of energy supplies in the capital and nearly 3 million people have been affected.

The attacks have also affected the metro and other electrically powered public transport.  The regions near the Russian border have also been affected by these cuts of light, water and gas, such as  Sumi, Kharkov, Poltava, Cheniguiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporiyia .

Russia launched more than 460 drones last night, 60 of which hit several locations, including 32 missiles of various kinds, including 14 ballistic and 2 hypersonic.

"We remain in contact with international partners to strengthen the defence of our energy infrastructure and ensure the stability ofthe system, "Minister Grinchuk stressed in a statement.

Ukraine is constantly calling on its members for more resources to strengthen air defence in order to protect its electricity grid and other energy infrastructure, which Russia has systematically attacked at various stages of this war.

Ukraine announced this week that it will import 30% more of the gas it would buy, after the Russians launched their biggest attack on Ukrainian gas production facilities since the start of the war.

In condemning the bombing, Zelensky has reported the death of a child in Zaporiyia and called for a strong international reaction to force Russia to cease such actions.

The US president wants to take advantage of the success he claims to have achieved with the signing of the peace process between Israel and Hamas Ukraina, as negotiations to end the war have so far failed.
