Russian attack cuts power to parts of Ukraine’s Odesa region

KYIV: An overnight Russian attack left parts of Ukraine’s southern Odesa region without power early Saturday, the latest strike to target Ukraine’s energy system ahead of winter, authorities said. Authorities did not say how many people the latest power cut affected, but Ukrainian energy firm DTEK reported outages in parts of the region’s capital. DTEK later said it had restored power to over 240,000 households in the region. “Last night, the enemy attacked energy and civilian infrastructure in the Odesa region,” regional governor Oleg Kiper said on Telegram.
