Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky saluted “the Jewish community of Ukraine and all the Jews of the world on Hanukkah” in his regular update on the war.
“Those who were outnumbered defeated those who outnumbered them,” Zelensky said in an address. “Light defeated darkness. It will be the same this time. Chag Hanukkah Sameach!”
“Unfortunately, millions of Ukrainians are now suffering from this because millions of people are cut from electricity supplies,” Ukrenergo CEO Volodymyr Kudrytskyi told Voice of America, a U.S.-government-owned broadcaster, in an interview published Monday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin authorized the persistent bombardment of Ukrainian energy infrastructure in the midst of a Ukrainian counteroffensive that forced Russian troops into high-profile withdrawals. These attacks are intended “to initiate complete blackout of the system,” as Kudrytskyi put it, in order to instigate a crippling humanitarian crisis.
