Russia’s Winter War on Ukraine’s Grid | San Antonio News

from San Antonio News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Russia’s relentless aerial assault on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure—13 strikes last week alone, 300+ since the year began—is part of a calculated “weaponizing winter” campaign designed to cripple power, heat, and morale as cold weather looms. While no workers were injured, critical equipment damage threatens Ukraine’s energy output. Meanwhile, Ukraine fires over 800 long-range drones at Russian targets—including deep inside Russia’s territory—and retaliates against key infrastructure like Wildberries warehouses. Civilians pay the price: nearly 17,000 deaths, schools and hospitals hit. Despite dwindling foreign aid like Patriot systems, Ukraine pushes forward with indigenous missile development and new European air defense partnerships in a high-stakes aerial chess match.
