Half Ukraine's energy system crippled by Russia - Shmyhal

Successive waves of Russian missile strikes have crippled almost half of Ukraine's energy system, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has said, as heavy fighting raged in areas in the east and south.

With temperatures falling and the capital Kyiv seeing its first snow of the winter, authorities were working to restore power nationwide after some of the heaviest bombardment of Ukrainian civilian infrastructure during nine months of war.

The United Nations has warned of a humanitarian disaster in Ukraine this winter due to power and water shortages.

"Unfortunately Russia continues to carry out missile strikes on Ukraine's civilian and critical infrastructure," Mr Shmyhal said.

"Almost half of our energy system is disabled."

He was speaking at a joint news conference with a vice-president of the European Commission, Valdis Dombrovskis, who was visiting Kyiv to discuss emergency EU financial aid.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said earlier about 10 million people were currently without power in a country with a pre-war population of about 44 million.

He said authorities in some areas ordered forced emergency blackouts.

"The aggressor country has officially recognised that its goal is to destroy our energy infrastructure and leave Ukrainians without electricity and heat," Ukraine's national grid operator Ukrenergo said on the Telegram messaging app.

It said Russia had launched six large-scale missile attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure from 10 October to 15 November.

Russia's defence ministry said its forces had used long-range weapons yesterday to strike defence and industrial facilities, including "missile manufacturing facilities".
