Reports one of its most serious attacks ever in November 2026, with three thermal plants halted.

Since October 2022, Russia has attacked Ukraine’s power plants, substations, rail hubs and ports in repeated missile and drone waves. The campaign forced a formal energy emergency in January 2026, when the grid met only 60% of demand and available capacity had fallen to about 14 gigawatts from 33.7 before the invasion.

Infrastructure hit in 10th mass strike since October 2025, over 220 total attacks

Ukraine resumed long-range drone strikes on Russian refineries after the U.S.-brokered energy ceasefire collapsed in mid-October. In the following weeks it hit the Bashneft complex in Ufa, an oil facility in Samara Oblast, the Kstovo refinery and a refinery in Yaroslavl, according to Ukrainian and Russian reports. Rosneft told Bloomberg on October 22 that losses from the strikes were becoming unsustainable, and the first tanker of Russian diesel under a Trump-brokered import deal sailed to the U.S. the next day despite Ukrainian objections.

The energy war continued through 2026. In February, Russia launched repeated strikes on Ukraine's grid ahead of peace talks, cutting power to millions. In October, a U.S.-brokered energy ceasefire collapsed after Moscow struck Ukrainian energy sites, ignoring the pause Trump announced. Ukraine responded by hitting the Ryazan oil refinery, its first strike on Russian energy infrastructure since the truce.
