Zelenskyy warns of further strikes on energy and transport infrastructure
In a 6 November address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukrainian intelligence indicated that Russia was preparing another strike against energy infrastructure, bridges across the Dnipro and civilian facilities. He said repair capacity was being increased and appealed for additional air-defence missiles. These are statements and intelligence assessments from Ukraine's government; the planned attack and its specific targets were not independently verified in the address.
