Russian missiles damage half of Ukraine's power grid

Russian missiles damage half of Ukraine's power grid
Russian missile attacks have apparently damaged Ukraine's power grid to an unprecedented extent. "Almost half of our energy system has failed," Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal on Friday said at a joint press conference on Friday with EU Commission Vice-President Valdis Dombrovskis in Kiev, according to the Unian news agency. Ukraine therefore needs additional support from the European Union in the energy sector and also financially, Shymal said.
