Following overnight drone attacks, large parts of Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories have suffered widespread power outages. Occupation authorities have confirmed that the Crimean peninsula, as well as the Donetsk and Kherson regions, have been left without electricity.

Vladimir Saldo, the occupation head of the Kherson region, stated that all districts in the area are either fully or partially disconnected from the power grid. The exact extent of the damage and the timeline for restoration remain unclear.

Ukrainian drones continue to target military infrastructure and energy facilities in occupied territories as part of a broader strategy to disrupt Russian supply lines and weaken combat capabilities. The attacks have caused significant disruption to civilian life in the affected areas.
