Major Ukraine power plant destroyed by Russian strikes

Kyiv’s biggest power plant was completely destroyed in the early hours of this morning during targeted air raids against energy infrastructure in Ukraine.

Russia launched 82 missiles and drones, many of them directed at substations and generation facilities in Odesa, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Lviv, and Kyiv regions. Roughly a third evaded air defences. 

Centrenergo, one of the country’s largest energy providers, said that its Trypillya power plant, just outside Kyiv, had been totally levelled during the raid.  The facility was the largest provider of electricity for three regions in central Ukraine – Kyiv, Cherkasy and Zhytomyr.

But how? We were told Russia ran out of missiles? Were these from those shovels?

Wonder if B Johnson is planning to cough up a bit of dough to repair this. Being such an ardent supporter of action to convince Ukraine renege on it's peace treaty. Then again not much effort expended to convince the latter as it was receipt of inequivocal support by UK and it's robust initiative to defend the country against gratuitous Russian aggression.

> Breaks Budapest Memorandum, invades and annexes Ukraine in largest land grab since WW2.
"Russia is defending itself."

> Reduces village to rubble, and covered it with landmines.
"Russia is protecting its historic territories."

> Ukraine still not in NATO after 2014 Russian invasion. Even denied its request to appeal to Russia.
"Russia is preventing Ukraine from NATO." breaks Helsinki Accords *

"None of this would of happened if NATO stopped expansion."
> Tries to join NATO.

Imagine if there are people so out of their mind to cheer on the destruction of this power plant. What is wrong with them?
