Ukraine: 150,000 households without electricity after Russian attacks

In Ukraine, tens of thousands of people were left without electricity and heating after Russian attacks on Kherson and the port of Odessa, the country's authorities and the main energy provider said.

​The state oil and gas company announced that the heating and power plants in Kherson have been almost completely destroyed.

As a result, more than 150,000 households remain without electricity.

​Russia has stepped up its attacks on Ukraine's energy facilities as winter approaches, plunging parts of cities into darkness.
