Russia hits Ukraine's grid 78 times in three days
Forget the usual headlines; the sheer volume of attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure is hitting a completely new, absurd level of intensity.
In just seventy-two hours, Russia managed to hammer our power grid 78 times. That is not just a nuisance; that is a systematic attempt to turn the lights out for good.
For comparison, back in the first year of the full-scale invasion, we had about 11 major attacks total. Now, the enemy is running a constant, high-intensity assault that keeps evolving. It is exhausting, and it makes the job of DTEK crews look like a Sisyphean struggle against a never-ending rain of steel.
No other energy system in the world has ever dealt with this level of sustained destruction. The lights are flickering not because of poor planning, but because the scale of the hits is fundamentally unprecedented.
The sheer resilience of the grid is apparently becoming a permanent, involuntary experiment in how much infrastructure can take before it breaks.
