War in Ukraine. Around 400 thousand people without electricity

RTP Notícias2 September 2026 at 13:40

Around 400 thousand people are without electricity in Ukraine due to Russian attacks on the country's energy system. The capital Kiev is suffering the effects of the attacks along with other Ukrainian regions.

Odessa, in the south of the country, was targeted by a large-scale attack during the last night. The port city was one of the most affected by the recent Russian attacks.

The humanitarian situation is worsening with the approaching winter, when temperatures drop significantly and the population faces growing difficulties without access to electricity and heating.

The opinion also advocates that forest fire management should be considered a sovereignty issue for Member States.
