Due to the latest Russian missile attacks on energy facilities in Ukraine, problems are expected in the supply of electricity to the Odesa region. For the rest of the regions there should be no major problems.

Quote: "The enemy do not change their tactics in this case. They want to freeze us... But they will not succeed in anything. I am sure that our experts will soon repair what was destroyed during the attacks. There will be minor problems in the Odesa region. In the rest of the territory, we do not see any major problems. Our experts are ready for that.

Moreover, we already understand how we should act when we understand that an attack is imminent. This is our ‘know-how’, our energy experts, who are working on these issues together with the services."

Details: The Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine noted that air defence forces are shooting down more and more Russian missiles, which proves the expertise of Ukrainian defenders and the contribution of partners who help Ukraine with modern means of combat.

At the same time, Danilov noted that Russia is no longer producing missiles.

Quote: "We calculated 4-5 powerful attacks. We did not say 2-3. A powerful attack we consider 100-110 missiles each, as was the case before, if the enemy does not receive additional missiles from those countries with which it is currently negotiating. As for the rockets, the enemy really does not have more of them. And since February 24, it has been steadily reducing this amount."

Previously: On December 5, Russia launched its eighth massive missile attack on critical infrastructure facilities in Ukraine, launching more than 70 missiles. The Ukrainian anti-aircraft system shot down more than 60 of them. Energy targets were hit in three regions: Kyiv, Vinnytsia and Odesa. In some regions, problems with electricity and water supply have arisen.
