Details: The substation supplies electricity to Russia's military facilities, including the Volgograd military district and defence ministry infrastructure.

Quote: "The Balashovskaia 500 kV substation in Volgograd Oblast has been attacked. This is a key facility of Russia's Southern energy system, which powers the Volgograd military district, defence ministry facilities and transport energy hubs on the Saratov-Voronezh axis."

More details: Russia has already lost another substation of the same type – Veshkaima – which has further strained energy supplies to its forces in the region.
