Over 550,000 homes in the dark as Russia targets the power grid
Another peaceful morning in Ukraine, courtesy of 16 ballistic missiles and a swarm of jet-powered lawnmowers knocking out electricity across eleven regions.
Over 10 energy hubs took a direct beating overnight. Aside from substations, the list of strategic targets apparently included a clinic, a school, and a metro station in Kyiv.
To add insult to injury, partner early-warning feeds mysteriously stayed silent during the first ballistic wave. By the second wave, the memo finally arrived, but by then hundreds of thousands of people were already stumbling around in the dark looking for candles.
Whenever someone abroad starts waxing poetic about peace talks and immediate ceasefires, this is the practical response: over 200 drones and half a million blacked-out apartments.
Belief in Russian de-escalation seems strictly limited to people whose living rooms are not currently running on emergency flashlights.
