"The goal is not just to damage, but to try again, like last year, to cause a large-scale failure of the country's energy system," he wrote on Facebook. The mayor of the eastern city of Kharkiv, Ihor Terekhov, said traffic lights in Ukraine's second-largest city were not working as a result of strikes on power facilities.
