Largest power plant in Ukraine’s Kyiv region destroyed in Russian attack

The largest power-generating plant in Ukraine’s Kyiv region was reportedly destroyed in a Russian missile attack on Thursday as Moscow steps up its attacks on infrastructure. Russian shelling caused a large-scale fire at the Trypilska Thermal Power Plant , with the company still working to localize the fire in the plant’s turbine workshop, energy company Centrenergo said in a statement.

The biggest loss of power in Ukraine came shortly after the invasion, when Russian forces seized control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant – the largest in Europe – which previously accounted for about 20% of the country’s power generation. Ukrainian staff have since put the plant’s reactors into a “cold shutdown” status to prevent a major radioactive incident.
