Ukraine War: Nuclear plant loses power as Russia launches wave of missile strikes

Spread The Viralist



Russia has launched a massive missile attack across Ukraine – striking targets in the capital Kyiv, the second biggest city of Kharkiv and the Black Sea port of Odesa.

The overnight barrage caused the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, which is occupied by Russian forces, to lose power.

Ukraine’s military said Russia had fired 81 missiles and eight drones.

  1. 🥵SVB International Fallout: UK and EU Lenders Lose £30 Billion Overnight as ‘Panic’ Spreads, the fallout from the run on the Silicon Valley Bank in California went international overnight, with British and European Union lenders seeing nearly £30 billion wiped off their portfolios and the Bank of England stepping in to take over the insolvency process for the British arm of SVB to protect the deposits of British firms tied to the bank.🫀

  2. The Ukrainian leader is arrogant and haughty. Hoping for help from NATO to fight Russia is a stupid way of thinking.. we as leaders of our people and country are saved..

  3. smart move by russia. this will get the ukraine public engaged and angry, they will start rioting and panicing which is horrible yes, but in russias eyes neccessary to ending this war, the zelensky governement needs to end, thats the only way to peace. Putin will not, and I don't blame him…. negotiate with zelensky, why should he? russia holds all the cards, they are winning extreamly effeciently in ukraine, they are gaining more support from china and other countries as nato and the usa come under more scrutinty. My fear is nato will plan a false flag soon and try to fool us all again giving them more power to act. stay tuned for a false flag.

  4. Going after power infrastructure, what a very U.S, British way to fight the war. Watching another country invade another just feels so strange when it's usually us.

  5. That's just terrible! So many civilians have already suffered from Russia and this is happening again. Russia doesn't even care where the missiles fall, the more victims, the more they want to bomb civilians. This is the genocide that Russia arranges must be stopped

  6. Why aren't the UN and NATO closing the skies to Ukraine? How many more casualties must there be before they finally get it through?

  7. There were no military targets or infrastructure near the civilian houses which were destroyed. Was it an intentional strike or just a mistake by russian occupants – it doens't matter, their missiles and drones had no right to be in Ukraine in the first place. We've got to stop this before even more people will suffer. Providing more military aid for Ukraine is the way to do that.

  8. Russia will never admit that it deliberately carried out this strike on an apartment building in order to intimidate the civilian population.

  9. What does Russia want, in addition to the status of a terrorist, to also receive the status of a nuclear terrorist? Then even China and India will start harsh sanctions against Russia.

  10. Reactors don't take more power for cooling than the reactors themselves create. It is a power plant ffs! It generates its own power! It can't be taken off the grid when it's the literal start of the grid! This is a non story. Surrounding homes and business' may not have power because THEY are off the grid but the plant itself cannot NOT have power. This is dumb.

  11. Is it a long time or should we give Ukraine the Patriot air defense system? So we waited. If Ukraine could shoot down these missiles, this would not have happened. Better yet, start shooting down MiG31s. Russian air defense has already shown its inability
