Ukraine’s grid operator Ukrenergo said that rotating power outages will continue acroos the country into December 3. The rolling blackouts, lasting in total up to 14 hours, are necessary due to “damage sustained by energy facilities during a massive missile and drone attack on November 28.
Over the day, households will face three periods withouth power:
- 07:00 – 08:00: One group of disconnections
- 08:00 – 19:00: Two groups of disconnections
- 19:00 – 21:00: One group of disconnections
Meanwhile, industrial and business consumers will have to endure power supply restrictions from 06:00 to 22:00.
The rotating outage schedule may be adjusted throughout the day based on ongoing repairs.
Ukrenergo emphasized that while it determines the number of groups to be disconnected, individual outage schedules are managed by regional operators.
The company also encouraged households to conserve electricity during this critical period to help balance the hobbled power grid.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
