But I know that, unfortunately, not all cities have done a quality job. In particular, there are many complaints in Kiev. In fact, only points that are deployed on the basis of the State Emergency Service and at the capital's railway station, and other points, to put it mildly, still need to be worked on. Please pay attention. Kiev residents need more protection."

The president also stressed that as of this evening, 600,000 subscribers in the city were disconnected, many Kievans were without electricity for more than 20 or even 30 hours: “I expect quality work from the city hall. As well as lies in reports of different levels."

He stressed that the price cap for Russian oil should be effective. We also discussed cooperation for Ensuring the Energy Stability of Ukraine".

19:19 GUR MOU, thanks to cooperation with the charitable foundation of Serhiy Prytula, which placed the ICEYE satellite at the disposal of Ukrainian intelligence officers, conducted space radar reconnaissance of about 150 areas of the enemy’s location both in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and in the territory of the occupier and his allies. In total, thanks to the project, the location of about 2,600 pieces of military equipment was discovered and confirmed. The data obtained using the satellite made it possible to effectively determine the hidden placement of the enemy in forest plantations, in any weather and at night, the GUR reported.

19:15 In Simferopol, the "authorities" inform the population about actions in case of an air raid alarm, as well as chemical and bacteriological danger, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said in the evening summary.

18:57 If Ukraine enters into negotiations with the Russian Federation without winning on the battlefield, then there will be no strong peace, Stoltenberg said: "If the West allows Putin to win, then the price will be higher than the terrible beginning of winter for Ukraine and Europe: other authoritarian leaders will see that strength is rewarded and they will use it to achieve their goal. It would make our world more dangerous."

18:40 In each region of Ukraine, from 200 to 400 thousand consumers are now without power supply, Shmyhal said: "The entire main high-voltage infrastructure is working, but problems persist in the distribution networks of regional energy companies throughout the state. On average, from 200 to 400 thousand consumers are de-energized in each areas at certain hours.

18:34 The Cabinet of Ministers has banned the export of firewood, Shmyhal said: "In many communities, especially front-line ones, wood is now the main resource for heating."

17:56 As a result of a new shelling by the Russian army, Ukraine experienced the first blackout. For the second day in a row, power engineers continue to return light to people's homes without rest. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians themselves help the Armed Forces, believe in our victory and demonstrate that it is possible to live without electricity, water and heat, but most importantly without the Russians. About how our citizens have adapted - in the material In the dark, but without you.

17:23 Norway is giving Ukraine a new package of military aid, Defense Minister Bern Arild Gram said.

17:14 Putin said that "the Donbass should have been annexed to Russia" earlier - "maybe there wouldn't have been so many victims then." According to him, since 2014, the Russian Federation "sincerely hoped to agree that the Donbass would return to Ukraine," but "did not fully feel the mood of the people."

16:53 The IAEA has confirmed that all operating nuclear power plants in Ukraine have again gained access to the national grid.

16:12 USAID donated 80 generators to Ukraine, U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink said: "While Russia is trying to turn off the power, USAID is providing 80 generators to keep the power supply going. This assistance is only part of the U.S. response to Russia's brutal and persistent attacks on Ukrainian critical infrastructure".

16:01 Due to constant Russian shelling, Kherson authorities are evacuating hospital patients. Thus, children who were treated in the Kherson Regional Clinical Hospital were transferred to Nikolaev, and 100 patients of the Kherson Regional Psychiatric Institution will be treated in Odessa. The head of the OVA, Yaroslav Yanushevich, recalled that all residents of the Kherson region who wish to evacuate to safer regions of Ukraine can contact the regional administration.

15:57 The situation with nuclear power plants in Ukraine is becoming more and more dangerous, said IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi: "The complete and simultaneous loss of external power supply to Ukrainian nuclear power plants demonstrates that the situation with nuclear safety in the country is becoming more unstable, complex and potentially dangerous."

Grossi emphasized that for the first time all stations simultaneously lose external power: "It was impossible to imagine before this tragic war. And this is very worrying. All military actions that threaten the security of Ukraine's nuclear facilities must be immediately stopped."

15:21 Zelensky, in his speech at the international symposium The Idea of ​​Europe, called on European countries to limit Russian oil prices at $30 per barrel: "There are words about the level of $60 or $70. Undoubtedly, such words are giveaways, more like "I'm grateful to our Baltic colleagues, Polish colleagues for their proposals. A price cap of $30 per barrel of oil seems to be a better proposal."

15:17 UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk said that, according to the conclusion of the UN monitoring mission in the field of law, the video with the killed Russian soldiers in Ukraine "is highly likely to be genuine." He also stated that the circumstances of the execution of Russian prisoners of war in Ukraine should be investigated as much as possible, and those responsible should be brought to justice.

15:08 The SBU checked the premises on the territory of the Chernivtsi-Bukovina diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (MP) and found documents confirming the presence of Russian citizenship among the leadership of the diocesan structures. Correspondence between the leaders of the diocese and Moscow curators was also found, in which they receive "manuals" on the "features" of holding church liturgies after a full-scale invasion.

Representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church set the task of disinformation about the socio-political situation in Ukraine and the situation at the front. In particular, they demanded that the priests of the UOC deny the armed aggression of the Russian Federation, talk about the alleged oppression of the "Moscow church", etc. In addition, the SBU found warehouses with wholesale batches of pro-Kremlin literature praising Russia and calling to support the occupiers. During the examination of the computers of the leadership of the diocese, photocopies of certificates of Russians who participated in hostilities against Ukrainian troops were found, in particular, a certificate of a hero of Russia, signed by the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation for the "seizure of Crimea" in 2014.

15:04 France sent 100 powerful generators to Ukraine, Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna said: "100 French generators are already on their way to Ukraine. We remind you that strikes on civilian infrastructure are war crimes."

14:59 Russia is committing war crimes by launching missile strikes on Ukrainian energy, Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili said: "The constant Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure are causing a huge humanitarian crisis for millions of Ukrainians. These are unacceptable war crimes, the civilian population suffers from this. Georgia supports strong and steadfast Ukrainian people".

14:56 Riga will give Kiev power generators and heat guns, Ukrainian Ambassador to Latvia Alexander Mishchenko said. In particular, the partners will hand over 84 generators and 100 heat guns.

14:41 Foreign companies are helping to send Russian missiles to Ukraine, according to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. In particular, missiles do not reach targets without clear coordinates defining navigation systems. To control missiles, the Russian Federation uses its own development of GLONASS, an analogue of GPS.

According to Ukrainian military intelligence, there is a weak point in the Russian navigation system - GLONASS depends on microchips produced by foreign companies. Russian missiles and drones have foreign-made GLONASS-enabled microchips—usually civilian chips, but the Russians use them for military purposes. The chips receive and process GLONASS coordinates, and missiles use this information to navigate in space and aim at Ukrainian civilian and energy infrastructure.

A number of foreign companies still continue to produce microchips with GLONASS support. Among them, in particular, Linx Technologies, Broadcom, Qualcomm and others. Russia, in turn, continues to purchase GLONASS-enabled microchips through numerous front companies and distributors.

13:35 Prague is transferring equipment to Kiev and Nikolaev, said the mayor of the Czech capital, Zdenek Grzyb: "We are sending a package of assistance from Prague to those who suffer from the genocide of Ukrainians committed by Russia. These are 626 heaters - 400 for Kiev, 226 for Nikolaev, and 18 units - 10 for Kyiv, 8 for Mykolaiv, and 22 million CZK worth of medical equipment for the Center for Public Health and the Ministry of Health… We will support Ukraine until its victory, and beyond during the post-war reconstruction.”

13:29 Eastern European NATO countries were able to significantly increase the production of Soviet-style ammunition that Ukraine needs, Stoltenberg said. At the same time, the Secretary General called military assistance to Ukraine "the most urgent task" and assured that NATO would continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary.

13:12 Peskov called "incorrect" the interpretation of Zelensky's words on Crimea as Ukraine's readiness for peace. In his opinion, the statements made speak of "the unwillingness and unwillingness of Kyiv to solve problems by non-military methods, Zelensky talks about the alienation of Russian territory, this is out of the question."

13:03 In Kherson and nearby settlements, the restoration of networks for the supply of electricity is being completed, the head of the OVA, Yaroslav Yanushevich, said. He urged local residents not to turn on electrical appliances as soon as the light turns on, but to leave only the lights on, as voltage fluctuations are possible.

12:39 British Foreign Minister James Cleverley, after a meeting with Zelensky, announced further support for Ukraine: "President Volodymyr Zelensky, the UK supports you with deeds, not words. I made this promise to you today. The UK intends to keep it."

12:07 Stoltenberg said that a "terrible winter" could await Ukraine. According to the Secretary General, the Foreign Ministers of the NATO countries at a meeting in Bucharest will decide the issue of expanding assistance to Ukraine. In particular, it will include fuel and medicines.

11:43 Ukrenergo reports that as of 11:00, electricity producers have provided more than 70% of the country's consumption needs. First of all, critical infrastructure facilities are connected in all areas: boiler houses, gas distribution stations, water utilities, treatment facilities, public electric transport operates in some regions.

Nuclear power plants are gaining capacity, the needs of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant have been supplied. Thermal and hydroelectric power stations, combined heat and power plants are operating, part of the "green" generation has joined the work. However, the shortage of electricity in the system remains: now it is 30% of the total consumption. In this regard, both planned and emergency schedules for limiting consumption have been introduced in all regions of Ukraine.

11:00 Over the past day, the Russians fired at the territory of the Kherson region 49 times. In just a day, ten civilians were killed, another 54 people were injured, said the head of the UVA, Yaroslav Yanushevich.

10:44 The General Staff announced the approximate losses of the enemy on the morning of November 25. The enemy suffered the greatest losses in the Bakhmut and Liman directions.

  • personnel - about 86,150 (+430) people liquidated,

  • tanks - 2899 (+1),

  • armored combat vehicles - 5844 (+5),

  • artillery systems - 1895 (+6),

  • MLRS - 395 (+0),

  • air defense systems - 209 (+0),

  • aircraft - 278 (+0),

  • helicopters - 261 (+0),

  • UAV operational-tactical level - 1553 (+6),

  • cruise missiles - 531 (+0),

  • ships/boats - 16 (+0),

  • automotive equipment and tankers - 4404 (+4),

  • special equipment - 163 (+2).

10:19 British intelligence writes that the majority of Russian mobilized people face the same problems - inadequate assessment of the medical board for fitness for service, insufficient additional training and equipment, involvement in very dangerous and exhausting tasks. The mobilized reservists most likely suffered very heavy losses after they were assigned to dig a giant system of trenches under shelling in the Svatovo region, analysts say. In the Donetsk region, many reservists died during frontal attacks on well-prepared Ukrainian defense lines in the Bakhmut area.

British intelligence believes that the Kremlin is likely to fear growing discontent in the families of the mobilized, which may encourage them to protest, despite the fear of reprisals.

10:11 Head of Ukrenergo Volodymyr Kudrytsky said that in 1-2 days all subscribers will be transferred from emergency shutdowns to planned ones. According to him, the Ukrainian energy system has already passed the most difficult stage after the attack: "All regions are connected, the energy system is again connected to the energy system of the European Union. All three nuclear power plants located in the non-occupied territory are operating. In 1-2 days they will reach their normal planned capacity , and we expect that it will be possible to transfer our consumers instead of emergency to planned schedules."

09:52 A reliable and effective air and missile defense system of Ukraine in the future can be integrated with NATO and European systems, Yermak said during a meeting of the Ukraine-NATO Commission.

09:23 Lithuania will help Ukraine with the restoration of energy infrastructure, said Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte. According to the Lithuanian Ministry of Energy, Vilnius has already provided material assistance for the restoration of the Ukrainian energy infrastructure in the amount of 3 million euros, another 2 million euros should be provided in the near future.

09:19 The head of the Lugansk OVA, Serhiy Gaidai, announced "positive news" in the directions of Svatovo and Kremennaya, but stressed that "it is now necessary to be silent." He also said that about 200 trucks with building materials, in particular, the so-called "dragon's teeth" are going towards Svatovo - the Russians are strengthening the defense there.

In Belogorivka, constant attacks by the invaders continue, but the Ukrainian forces are confidently holding the line. The de-occupied villages suffer from the constant fire of the Russians - they hit with Grads, Hurricanes, Tornadoes.

09:15 In Kiev, 50% of the housing stock is operating in emergency power outage mode, the KGVA reported. Water supply in the capital has been fully restored, but some consumers may still experience low water pressure. Heat supply is being restored.

09:12 On the night of November 25, the enemy struck from the MLRS on the port area and the settlement of the Ochakovo community, as a result of which one person was injured. Residential buildings are damaged, among them one multi-storey building, said the head of the Nikolaev OVA Vitaly Kim.

08:37 In the Donetsk region over the past day, as a result of enemy shelling, three civilians were injured - in Bakhmut, Vuhledar and Krasnogorovka, the head of the OVA Pavel Kirilenko said.

08:08 Over the past day, units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine repulsed the attacks of the invaders in the areas of the settlements of Stelmakhovka and Dibrova in the Luhansk region and Belogorovka, Yakovlevka, Bakhmutskoye, Bakhmut, Experienced, Pervomayskoye, Krasnogorovka, Maryinka and Novomikhailovka in the Donetsk region, the General Staff said in the morning summary .

07:33 British Foreign Secretary James Cleverley went to Ukraine , the office of the Foreign Minister said. As part of the visit, Cleverly will meet with Zelenskiy and Kuleba and also announce £3m to rebuild vital Ukrainian infrastructure and £5m to a Kyiv-led grain initiative.

05:40 Energy ministers of the EU countries have previously agreed on a mechanism for regulating the gas market, which, among other things, excludes Russian gas from joint purchases, the EU Council said.

04:12 British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace advised the Ukrainian army to keep the momentum of the offensive in the winter, using its advantage over the enemy: "Given the advantage that Ukrainians have in training, equipment and quality of personnel over demoralized, poorly trained, poorly equipped Russians, in Ukraine's interests would be to maintain momentum throughout the winter."

Wallace stressed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces received 300,000 sets of winter clothing from the international community, which is important for the winter offensive: “A Russian unit was recently deployed without food, without socks and with few weapons. This is catastrophic for a person walking in the field ... Russians have scales, but they are not very good. Well, most of the good ones have died."

03:50 IAEA experts arrived at all Ukrainian nuclear power plants to provide staff with support and assistance, the agency's director general Rafael Grossi said.

03:17 For nine months of a full-scale war against Ukraine, Russia has spent 82 billion dollars , which is a quarter of its annual budget, Forbes calculated. The estimate includes direct spending needed to support the war effort, but does not include stable defense spending or economic losses.

00:28 Zelensky, in an interview with the Financial Times, called decisions that do not involve the de-occupation of Crimea a waste of time: "I understand that everyone is puzzled by the situation and what will happen to Crimea. If someone is ready to offer us a way to de-occupy Crimea in a non-military way, I will only for... If the decision does not provide for de-occupation and Crimea is part of the Russian Federation, no one should waste their time on this. It is a waste of time."

On the situation with energy supply after the strikes on November 23.
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin

[ColonelCassad] 1. Despite all efforts, a huge part of consumers are still without electricity.

2. The emergency shutdown mode is actually extended for an indefinite period - it would be a blessing to return to October times with rolling blackouts on a schedule, but apparently it will not work out.

3. Cellular and internet outages also continue on the second day, despite serious efforts to fix the problems.

4. Zelensky's gang is already broadcasting the thesis with might and main that the population should be thrown out of the cities. Klitschko once again voiced this today.

5. In the context of the restoration of electricity supply, the Zelensky gang calls to save electricity, as in the mornings and evenings the load on the crippled power system increases and various accidents roll through the network, which aggravate the overall situation.

6. Taking into account previous practice, it can be expected that after some time, in late November-early December, another wave of strikes will follow, which will be aimed at distribution capacities and finishing off already damaged facilities. At the same time, due to the cumulative effect, the consequences will be even more severe for the energy system than on November 23.

As it is not difficult to see, the methodical nature of the strikes led to the fact that each subsequent wave squandered the energy system of Ukraine more and more.

7. Since the US and NATO are aimed at implementing the "war to the last Ukrainian" strategy, the war will continue in the winter, and the continuation of the war means that the unified energy system of Ukraine will be further destroyed.

#1  What a glorious Russian achievement! It surely ranks with Borodino, Stalingrad, and the Destruction of Army Group Center. There should be a special medal for the participants, so that they can be easily identified at The Hague.

#2  Cutting the power certainly makes a mess of things. Not just no electricity, but no water and no district heat.

But it does shut down the railroads. No rail transport means no moving troops and materiel. The forces around Kherson could be better used elsewhere if the Ukrainians had a way to get them there.

Europe
Europe accuses US of profiting from war. Well, they're not wrong.
[Politico] EU officials attack Joe Biden over sky-high gas prices, weapons sales and trade as Vladimir Putin’s war threatens to destroy Western unity.
They just can't stop themselves from calling it "Putin's War". The deep state is to blame, and yet the propagandists have to follow the guidelines. Europe isn't even angry about that, they're angry that America is making a profit.
Nine months after invading Ukraine, Vladimir Putin is beginning to fracture the West.

Top European officials are furious with Joe Biden’s administration and now accuse the Americans of making a fortune from the war, while EU countries suffer.

"The fact is, if you look at it soberly, the country that is most profiting from this war is the U.S. because they are selling more gas and at higher prices, and because they are selling more weapons," one senior official told POLITICO.

The explosive comments — backed in public and private by officials, diplomats and ministers elsewhere — follow mounting anger in Europe over American subsidies that threaten to wreck European industry. The Kremlin is likely to welcome the poisoning of the atmosphere among Western allies.
Europe has subsidized its industries forever and America has laid down and taken it. It is rich that they would complain about such a thing. "I am shocked, shocked to see that gambling is going on in here!"
"We are really at a historic juncture," the senior EU official said, arguing that the double hit of trade disruption from U.S. subsidies and high energy prices risks turning public opinion against both the war effort and the transatlantic alliance. "America needs to realize that public opinion is shifting in many EU countries."
You couldn't hate us any more than you did under Trump, who you called worse than Hitler. Or Bu$hitler, who you also said was Hitler. And now Biden, a Democrat - you're not even calling him Hitler? What's the deal with pretending you're just now starting to get angry?
The EU’s chief diplomat Josep Borrell called on Washington to respond to European concerns. "Americans — our friends — take decisions which have an economic impact on us," he said in an interview with POLITICO.

The biggest point of tension in recent weeks has been Biden’s green subsidies and taxes that Brussels says unfairly tilt trade away from the EU and threaten to destroy European industries. Despite formal objections from Europe, Washington has so far shown no sign of backing down.

At the same time, the disruption caused by Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is tipping European economies into recession, with inflation rocketing and a devastating squeeze on energy supplies threatening blackouts and rationing this winter.
As much as I hate the deep state, it warms my heart to see them doing this to Europe. It's about time someone stood up to them. If the deep state invaded Hell, etc.
As they attempt to reduce their reliance on Russian energy, EU countries are turning to gas from the U.S. instead — but the price Europeans pay is almost four times as high as the same fuel costs in America. Then there’s the likely surge in orders for American-made military kit as European armies run short after sending weapons to Ukraine.
Oh boo-fuckety-hoo. The NERVE, the absolute nerve to complain. They run a sky-high trade surplus with us, and this isn't even going to bring it even. It won't even come close. This will just put a tiny dent in their trade surplus, and they're screaming like a stuck pig. FUCK them.
It's all got too much for top officials in Brussels and other EU capitals. French President Emmanuel Macron said high U.S. gas prices were not "friendly" and Germany’s economy minister has called on Washington to show more "solidarity" and help reduce energy costs.

Ministers and diplomats based elsewhere in the bloc voiced frustration at the way Biden’s government simply ignores the impact of its domestic economic policies on European allies.
If Biden invaded Hell, etc.
When EU leaders tackled Biden over high U.S. gas prices at the G20 meeting in Bali last week, the American president simply seemed unaware of the issue, according to the senior official quoted above. Other EU officials and diplomats agreed that American ignorance about the consequences for Europe was a major problem.
LOL he has dementia you stupid fucks. He's unaware of much, except when he has to go to the bathroom. And sometimes not even then.
"The Europeans are discernibly frustrated about the lack of prior information and consultation," said David Kleimann of the Bruegel think tank.

Officials on both sides of the Atlantic recognize the risks that the increasingly toxic atmosphere will have for the Western alliance. The bickering is exactly what Putin would wish for, EU and U.S. diplomats agreed.
Therefore Europeans are Putin's tools. They are acting in the pay of the FSB. A day of reckoning will come for these traitors.

#3  #1 Well, at least he didn't use any fancy words this time. Although I'm not sure that "f-ck" is an improvement.

Anyway, the message is that there is a split within the West, which is one of the current Soviet propaganda themes. The main theme used to be that glorious victory was nigh, but for some reason that's no longer part of the canon.

#11  "U.S. because they are selling more gas and at higher prices, and because they are selling more weapons," and they are also spending billions of taxpayer dollars to support the war effort. That causes inflation that isn't helping things.

But what this really is, is the Germans trying to blame someone else for the cold winter their citizens are going to face.
