Russia starts studying Ukraine's energy infrastructure condition

Defence Intelligence of Ukraine has reported that Russian intelligence began to study the actual condition of Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

Source: Vadym Skibitskyi, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, quoted by their press service 

Quote: "We are monitoring all issues related to the reconnaissance of our energy facilities by the Russian Federation.

They have started such work."

Details: Skibitskyi said the Russians were using various types of intelligence, including space intelligence.

The purpose of such actions by the Russians is to find out the current condition of the Ukrainian energy sector and identify those critical facilities that generally affect the country's energy system.

Why it is important: From early October to mid-winter last year, Russia attacked Ukraine's energy system.

The country experienced power outages, when most Ukrainians were without electricity, heating and water, as well as hourly power cuts.
