Russia has escalated strikes on Ukraine’s energy system, targeting a key gas compressor station vital for winter storage, as Kyiv faces mounting shortages despite U.S. peace efforts.
Ukraine has already been struggling with reduced domestic production following earlier Russian missile strikes, and the latest attack further complicates its energy security.
