Over the last 8 hours, Ukraine has attacked energy infrastructure in Belgorod City 4 more times with dozens of HIMARS and other rockets.
As a result, widespread power, heating, and water outages occurred across Belgorod City and the surrounding towns and villages.
The attacks were assisted by Ukrainian reconnaissance drones, which circled over the city adjusting the strikes.
Among the targets hit were:
- Belgorod Thermal Power Plant (50.60009, 36.61893)
- Luch Thermal Power Plant (50.561053, 36.580258)
