Chernihiv region, Russian forces used multiple "Geranium"-2 suicide drones to bomb a substation, directly destroying the main control room, without bombing the transformers outside.
Previous three years of war have shown that the paralysis of energy facilities in winter is the period with the greatest impact on social life. Ukraine stated that the Russian forces plan to destroy 80% of Ukraine's power system within four months before the end of 2025, thereby triggering a large-scale social crisis and forcing the Zelenskyy government to accept ceasefire conditions.
Although Ukraine is actively stockpiling spare parts and reinforcing facilities, and has received international aid, its air defense system still cannot cover all targets, and the situation is very severe. This year is different from previous years, as the Russian drone production capacity has increased, and they will use cheap "Geranium" suicide drones for large-scale, multiple waves of attacks, in order to consume and overwhelm Ukraine's air defense system. They aim to achieve a systemic paralysis of Ukraine's power and energy, rather than one-time destruction, making the repair work exhausted.
