KYIV: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said emergency and utility services are working continuously to restore electricity and water supplies after Russia launched more than 450 drones and 30 missiles overnight across several regions of the country, with the main strikes again targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
In a post on X, Zelenskyy said the attack primarily hit southern Ukraine, including the Odesa region, where two people were wounded.
He said more than a dozen civilian facilities were damaged nationwide, while thousands of families were left without electricity following the strikes.
“All necessary services are currently working to restore electricity and water supply in our communities affected by Russia’s overnight attack,” Zelenskyy said, adding, “Once again, the main strike targeted our energy sector, the south of the country, and the Odesa region.”
Power outages were reported in the Kirovohrad, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson and Chernihiv regions.
Zelenskyy also highlighted that Russian attacks also struck the Dnipro and Cherkasy regions.
“In total, the enemy used more than 450 attack drones and 30 missiles of various types,” Zelenskyy said, describing the scale of the overnight assault.
He said authorities were taking all possible measures to stabilise the situation and restore essential services.
“We are doing everything possible to restore and improve the situation. I thank all our people involved in the recovery efforts,” he said.
Zelenskyy said the latest attacks show that Russia has no intention of ending the war, urging the international community to recognise Moscow’s actions clearly.
“It is important that everyone now sees what Russia is doing – every step they take in terror against our people, all their attacks, for this is clearly not about ending the war,” he said. “They still aim to destroy our state and inflict maximum pain on our people.”
The Ukrainian president stressed that continued international support remains critical, particularly in strengthening Ukraine’s defensive and military capabilities.
“That is why we need support in everything that helps protect lives and put an end to this war – strengthening air defences and our warriors at the front, increasing our long-range capabilities, and intensifying pressure on Russia,” Zelenskyy said.
He also underlined the importance of diplomatic pressure, saying peace efforts would only succeed if Russia were forced to change its course.
“For all our diplomatic efforts to yield results, pressure must be applied to the aggressor so that they end the war they started,” Zelenskyy said, adding, “I thank everyone who understands this and is ready to help.”
The overnight strikes come as Russia continues its sustained campaign against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, particularly ahead of winter, compounding challenges for civilians across multiple regions. (ANI)

I Lost Cryptocurrency to a Pig-Butchering Scam — Can Crypto Really Be Recovered?
I was contacted through WhatsApp/Telegram by someone who presented themselves as a professional crypto trader and mentor. Over time, they built trust and introduced me to what appeared to be a legitimate cryptocurrency investment platform.
Initially, the platform showed profits, which made everything seem real. However, when I attempted to withdraw my funds, I was asked to pay additional charges such as withdrawal fees, taxes, or account verification costs. Each payment was followed by new demands.
Eventually, I realized the platform was fake and the individual disappeared completely. I had sent USDT/BTC/ETH directly from my personal wallet to addresses they provided, and my funds were gone.
After losing a significant amount of money, I felt devastated and confused. Like many other crypto scam victims, these were the questions that immediately came to my mind:
• Is it possible to trace cryptocurrency sent to scammers?
• Has anyone actually recovered funds lost to a pig-butchering or crypto investment scam?
• Are crypto recovery services or so-called “ethical hackers” legitimate, or are they also scams?
• What steps should victims take immediately after realizing they’ve been scammed to avoid further losses?
These are common questions asked by cryptocurrency scam victims across forums like Quora and Reddit. While researching and trying to understand my options, I eventually came across Infiniti Digital Recovery. Based on my personal experience, they assisted in recovering my stolen cryptocurrency without requesting any upfront payment.
I understand that crypto recovery is a sensitive topic and that many so-called recovery services are scams themselves. My intention in sharing this experience is to contribute to the discussion and help other victims understand what questions to ask, what red flags to watch for, and the importance of extreme caution when seeking recovery assistance.
If you’ve been affected by a cryptocurrency investment scam, take time to research thoroughly, avoid anyone guaranteeing results, and never send additional funds without proper verification
