Russia targets Ukraine’s energy infrastructure at least 8 times since March 18 — Zelenskyy's advisor
Presidential communications advisor Dmytro Lytvyn stated that since March 18, the Russian military has shelled Ukraine’s energy facilities at least eight times
He wrote about this on X.
"Moscow is a city built on lies, no surprise to anyone in Ukraine. For example, in their statement after the meetings in Riyadh, the Russians claimed they believe a ceasefire on energy facilities has supposedly been in effect since March 18. Why March 18? Because that’s when they pushed out a clearly fake story claiming Putin supposedly ordered a stop to strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure" he wrote.
However, according to the Ukrainian authorities, since March 18, the Russian forces have continued to strike energy facilities in Ukraine.
"We’re not going into all the details, but there have already been 8 confirmed hits on energy facilities. And every night our air defense forces shoot down nearly a hundred attack drones – and many of those drones were likely targeting other energy facilities. Without our defenders, there could have been many more hits," Lytvyn said.
- The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that on the night of March 19, following an order from dictator Vladimir Putin, they allegedly shot down 7 of their own drones heading for Ukraine's energy facilities.
- On March 21, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that the Russian army is allegedly "continuing to refrain" from striking Ukraine's energy infrastructure, in accordance with an agreement with the U.S.
