Targeted as a critical logistics and passenger network
Since October 2022, Russia has waged a parallel war on Ukraine's electricity, heating and transport systems, launching repeated waves of missiles and drones at power plants, high-voltage substations, rail hubs and ports. The campaign intensified in winter 2025–26 with near-daily barrages. These destroyed 70% of generating capacity, forced a formal energy emergency on January 15, 2026, and left the grid meeting only 60% of national electricity needs amid temperatures as low as minus 20°C.
