The Russian military destroyed all Ukrainian thermal power plants and the largest hydroelectric power plants. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy on 25 September during his his speech at the UN General Assembly, reports Komersant ukrainskyi

According to the head of state, Russia failed to defeat Ukrainians on the battlefield, so their leader, Vladimir Putin, is trying to influence the civilian population in this way on the eve of winter.
“Putin is preparing for the winter – he hopes to torment millions, millions of Ukrainians. Ordinary families – women, children. Ordinary cities, ordinary villages. Putin wants to leave them in the dark and cold this winter, forcing Ukraine to suffer and surrender,” Zelenskyy said.
In addition, the Ukrainian leader said that he had received an intelligence report stating that Putin was planning attacks on Ukraine’s nuclear facilities and infrastructure to disconnect nuclear reactors from the supply system.
“With the help of satellites, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, satellites of other countries, Russia receives images and detailed information about the infrastructure of our nuclear power plants,” he stressed.
