Russian drone strikes cut power to 600,000 in Dnipropetrovsk; 5 killed in Donetsk

Overnight Russian drone assault on Ukrainian critical infrastructure left over 600,000 consumers in Dnipropetrovsk without power, with impacts confirmed across 23 locations including an industrial site in Rivne. Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 137 of 164 drones, but strikes also hit a substation in Zhytomyr and port infrastructure in Odesa, while shelling killed five in Donetsk. This continues Russia's pattern of targeting Ukraine's energy grid, but the scale of disruption and geographic spread mark a notable escalation in strike intensity.

These strikes have caused widespread power outages, disrupted water and heating supplies, and raised nuclear safety concerns at Zaporizhzhia NPP. Ukraine has retaliated with drone strikes on a key bridge and power stations in Russia's Rostov Oblast.
