Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement regarding the increasing Russian attacks on energy facilities amid falling temperatures across the country.

The statement drew attention to the timing of the attacks and their humanitarian impact: “As temperatures fall across Ukraine, Russia is deliberately increasing the scope and intensity of its attacks on energy infrastructure. At a time when nighttime temperatures drop to as low as minus 25 degrees, electricity and heating are vital for daily life and survival. Russia must be stopped.”

Emphasizing defense needs and international assistance, the ministry noted that Ukraine needs stronger air defense systems to counter Russian attacks.

The ministry also reported that thanks were extended to everyone who took part in the Warmth For Ukraine campaign, which aims to provide generators and other essential energy equipment during Russian attacks.
