“We must be aware that there will be more such Russian attacks as winter approaches – on generation facilities and the grid. We must be prepared for this,” Mr Zelenskiy said, as crews worked to repair bomb damage to the electricity network in the eastern Kherson and Donetsk regions. “Everyone has to do their part in defence to prevent Russian terror from stopping Ukraine this winter. Just like on the battlefield, we must be as resilient and strong as possible in all areas.”

“Over the past two days we’ve been saying that the have blown themselves out… They are not yet giving up on attempts to surround the city, but strikes on areas of the community are several times fewer than they were, and the number of aircraft operating is many times smaller,” he told Ukrainian television.
