Survive power outages with heat rooms and emergency kits

Since October 10, Russian President Vladimir Putin has been pursuing a new war strategy against Ukraine: targeted airstrikes on power plants, district heating systems and other infrastructure in order to deprive the population of large cities of their livelihoods in winter.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has now announced the creation of thousands of warming rooms across the country. How successful has Putin been with the concept of “scorched earth” to break the will to resist? How can Ukraine fight back?

And how can the West support this – also so that there is no new mass flight from Ukraine to the West? An overview.

How big is the damage?

In mid-October, after the first week of airstrikes on the energy supply, Zelensky summed up: “Since October 10, 30 percent of Ukraine’s power plants have been destroyed, leading to massive power outages across the country.”
