Russia has attacked Ukrainian energy infrastructure 60 times in the last several weeks as winter approaches and temperatures drop, driving up public energy consumption, officials said on Wednesday.
Ukraine fears Russia may have already begun a concerted campaign of attacks on the power grid for a second winter at war. Last winter, thousands of Russian drones and missiles targeted Ukraine's power sector, causing sweeping blackouts.
"After each new attack, the need for energy equipment grows, and therefore the help of partners for the Ukrainian energy sector is very important." The energy ministry said natural gas distribution networks were also damaged in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
