Earlier today, Ukraine's Civil Service for Emergency Situations announced that five regions of the country were completely de-energized after Russia struck Ukrainian infrastructure earlier this morning.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's office called on Ukrainians to reduce energy consumption as much as possible during evening hours.

To that effect, Ukraine's Energy Ministry also announced that it will stop its electricity exports to the EU as of October 11 on account of the damage inflicted by the attacks.

"Ukraine stops exporting electricity due to Russian missile attacks on energy facilities," the ministry said on Facebook, adding that it was exporting electricity to the EU, as well as Moldova and Poland.

"Today's missile attacks hit thermal generation and electrical substations, forcing Ukraine to stop exporting electricity from October 11, 2022, to stabilize its own energy system," the ministry said.

Russian President Vladimir Putin told a Russian Security Council meeting on Monday that Kiev has so far conducted three terrorist acts against the nuclear power plant in Kursk. "These are acts of atomic terrorism. I mean rocket and artillery strikes on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant."

The Russian President further announced in the meeting that his country conducted an attack today on Ukraine's infrastructure, using precision-guided missiles.

If Kiev continues to carry out "terrorist attacks" in Russia, the president continued, Moscow's response will be "tough."
