KYIV, Oct 30 — More than 200,000 people remain without power in Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region following Russian attacks, authorities said today, a day after a deadly Russian drone strike on a train station there.
Russia’s defence ministry meanwhile said that its air defence systems had overnight shot down more than 1,000 Ukrainian drones across Russian regions.
Ukraine’s air force said Russia had used ballistic missiles and drones to attack several regions overnight, including Dnipropetrovsk, causing a widespread blackout in Dnipro city.
Power company DTEK said grid operator Ukrenergo had ordered emergency power cuts across the city, as well as in adjacent districts and in parts of Pavlograd district.
