Ukrainian energy facilities came under a “massive attack” from Russia overnight, the Ukraine energy ministry said on Saturday, describing it as the eighth time Russia has launched an assault on energy infrastructure in the past three months.
“The situation in the energy sector remains difficult,” the ministry said in a statement, adding that hourly electricity shutdowns for consumers will be in effect. Two workers were injured and taken to hospital as a result of shelling at one of the facilities, it said.
It was the second attack this week targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, according to the ministry.
