* Strikes on Wednesday disconnected three Ukrainian nuclear plants from the grid
* This plunged the country into darkness as temperatures fell below freezing
* Satellite images of Ukraine on November 24 showed a blacked-out nation
* This offered a stark contrast to images from February 24, the day of the invasion
* Cities that were once bright spots of light were dimmed or totally extinguished
Remarkable satellite images have shown how Ukraine was plunged into almost complete darkness after Vladimir Putin targeted power stations in the latest brutal wave of missiles.
Strikes on Wednesday left multiple people dead, disconnected three Ukrainian nuclear plants automatically from the national grid and even provoked blackouts in neighbouring Moldova, whose energy network is linked to Ukraine.
Such attacks have forced millions of people to go without light, water or heating for hours or days at a time, just as outdoor temperatures fall below freezing.

WNU Editor: Yesterday was the first time since the start of the war that I was not able to contact anyone I know in Ukraine. From what I know these attacks were focused on critical parts of the grid, and it appears that Ukraine's air defenses are no longer effective.
What happened yesterday is definitely not a good sign on what will soon be coming.
I know that the Russian military is testing Ukraine's grid vulnerabilities. And when they have pinpointed all the critical targets, will completely destroy them when they launch their major offensive that many are predicting will happen this winter.
This expected massive attack to wipe out Ukraine's power grid for weeks, if not for months, will be my red flag that Russia has started their major offensive.

Without long range missiles for Ukraine, they loose. Ukraine must establish a no go area inside Russia at least 100 miles deep. Only lots of long range missiles can do that.
Just waiting for it. Terrible
Power is still being rerouted to western Ukraine despite receiving the same bombardment as everywhere else. Not hard to imagine why people in the east are resentful.
"Not hard to imagine why people in the east are resentful."
More trolling. There are more nodes to get power east.
Russian/fascist missile strikes have been heaviest in the East. Strikes have been heaviest in the east so much so that it is notable when their are missile strike in LVIV.
Yes, people should be resentful ... of the Russians
What a joke. Russia would most certainly use nukes at any attempt by the Ukrainians at such an operation.
What type of government does Canada have? Especially in light of its latest move to ban almost all remaining firearms in the country. Any thoughts on that?
the Walmart shooter bought a gun the same day he used it to kill fellow workers:
US passes 600 mass shootings for third straight year
more controls needed. you do not have to ban guns but regulate them rationally.
Colorado shooter had red flags but sheriff said he believed in the right to carry arms and so did not seize guns from guy who wanted to even kill his mother
Six million Americans carried guns daily in 2019, twice as many as in 2015 | US gun control
well with all the dead in donbas since 2014, no wonder thoae folks are unhappy Yes glorius
Demand will always command a supply. You establish a black market trade route in the vacuum being created by the he government, far more destructive instruments of warfare will make there way in
in Ukraine. learn what you can from thier experience. without power you freeze unless you know what you are doing
