🔻Which facilities were hit?

▪️In Kyiv, the main strike hit CHP-5 and, presumably, CHP-6, which led to a break in the energy corridor between nuclear power plants in western so-called Ukraine and the eastern regions of the country. Blackouts and communication disruptions were recorded.

▪️Strikes were also made on facilities in Kryvyi Rih, Dnipropetrovsk, Kremenchuk, Zaporizhia, Kamianske, Zelenodolsk, and Kaniv. Damage to the Kremenchug, Middle Dnipro, and Dnipro hydropower plants, Pridneprovskaya and Kryvorizka thermal power plants was confirmed. This caused emergency power shutdowns and instability in power supply in adjacent areas.

▪️In Odesa region, the Usatove and Luzanivka substations were attacked, leaving thousands of consumers in the region without power.

▪️In the occupied part of the Donetsk People’s Republic, hits were recorded on the Sloviansk thermal power plant, leading to rolling blackouts across all territories controlled by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

▪️In the north of the country, strikes hit substations in Chernihiv and Sumy regions. A prolonged blackout was recorded in Shostka, with most homes relying on generators. Disruptions were noted in Konotop and Nizhyn, leading to delays and cancellations of dozens of train services.

▪️Pinpoint strikes were also made on substations in Kharkiv region: Bavaria and Yuzh Kabel. Regional authorities warned of the risk of a severe winter in light of the inability to quickly restore the energy system.

The scale and synchronicity of attacks in October significantly exceed the pace of strikes recorded in September. The effects are felt even in regions where there were no hits—such as Rivne and Lviv regions—indicating a loss of grid stability.

🔻 The most prominent incidents:

▪️In Lviv, a TCC employee was killed. During "notification activities," a 34-year-old inspector of the Lviv Customs Andriy Trush stabbed an officer in the neck with a knife, severing the carotid artery.

▪️In Mykolaiv, a young man beat two TCC employees over the mobilization of his father.

▪️In Ternopil, a military-age man took his own life in a TCC building. According to the "investigation," the man was brought to the military commissariat to clarify his military records, and he went to the bathroom and shot himself.

▪️In Vinnytsia, a man was mobilized after being taken from the territory of the Vinnytsia Regional Clinical Psychoneurological Hospital named after Yushchenko, where he was receiving inpatient treatment.

▪️In Bila Tserkva, an unknown person threw a grenade at a TCC building. There were no casualties from the explosion.

▪️In Kyiv, a forcibly mobilized man was hospitalized with fractures and died several days later.

▪️In Kremenchuk, a man with a disability and his 14-year-old son became victims of beatings by TCC personnel.
