It wants obedience. But at the end of the day, terrorists always lose,” Yermak said. Around a third of Ukraine’s power grid has been knocked out by weeks of targeted bombardment, causing rolling blackouts and a lack of heating. The shameless bombardment left half of Kyiv and the city of Zhytomyr without power. Strikes were recorded in Lviv and Rivne in the west, Kharkiv in the northeast, Kryvyi Rih, Poltava, and Zaporizhzhia in the centre and Odesa in the south. It comes as president Zelensky told world leaders at this year’s G20 summit they needed to step up actions to halt Russia’s attacks on Ukraine. He said they could “save thousands of lives” by urging Moscow to withdraw from occupied territories. “I am convinced now is the time when the Russian destructive war must and can be stopped.” In a bizarre speech at the meeting, Russia’s foreign minister Sergei Lavrov accused the West of waging “hybrid warfare” in Ukraine and accused Kyiv of “prolonging” the conflict without mentioning Moscow’s involvement. It comes amid a report that a Russian invasion was “more likely than ever”.
