Russia hits Ukraine's grid and Dnipro bridges as Ukrainian drones hit Russian industry

4 sources

Russia struck Ukrainian energy sites as talks opened in Abu Dhabi. Ukrainian drones hit a Novgorod plant.

Reuters, citing the grid operator, reported attacks on energy facilities in eight Ukrainian regions on Tuesday, 10 November. Russia's Defense Ministry said it hit substations that supported Ukraine's defense industry. In his evening address, Zelensky said Moscow is trying to divide Ukraine along the Dnipro by striking bridges and the grid. A Ukrainian official told the Financial Times that Kyiv expects Russia to disrupt military shipments and cut power flow from west to east, leaving millions without electricity or heat in winter.

Drones hit Novgorod plant

Russia's Defense Ministry said it downed 155 Ukrainian drones overnight. Novgorod Governor Alexander Dronov reported damage to an unnamed industrial facility and two dachas, with no injuries. Ukrainian Telegram channels claim the 123rd Aviation Repair Plant was hit.

Refining capacity reduced

Reuters, citing two industry sources, says strikes since late October, after the collapse of an energy ceasefire announced by Trump, disrupted nine of Russia's 35 largest refineries, together about 30% of capacity. Throughput fell to about 700,000 metric tons a day against 930,000 capacity, worsening fuel shortages.

Other opinions

TASS and the Russian ministry describe their strikes as hitting defense-linked energy sites and ships; Zelensky says they aim to make life hardest for civilians.
