Russia has declared a national emergency after Ukraine launched massive attacks against the Russian energy grid, plunging regions like Belgorod and Kursk into darkness. In Belgorod, chaos reigns, and what Russia inflicted on Ukraine in previous winters is now being inflicted on Russia itself.

The crisis began after a wave of Ukrainian strikes against Belgorod’s energy network, locals reported loud explosions followed by immediate blackouts, as Ukrainian drones first hit key transformers throughout the city.

Within hours, another barrage hit the Belgorod thermal power plant, leaving 40,000 people without electricity. Footage shows the Luch power substation engulfed in flames, with emergency services unable to contain the fire.
