Tensions are escalating once again as Ukrainian drone strikes allegedly hit the Shatura power plant, one of Russia’s oldest major energy facilities, triggering a massive nighttime explosion visible for miles. The site, located roughly 120 km east of Moscow, became the latest target in Kyiv’s ongoing campaign to weaken Russia’s energy infrastructure. Russian officials reported that nearby air defenses intercepted additional inbound drones, prompting a temporary shutdown at Zhukovsky Airport due to heightened air activity. The strike comes amid intensifying tit-for-tat attacks, with Moscow continuing heavy bombardment of Ukrainian energy grids as winter approaches. Emergency crews were seen rushing to the scene, though no confirmed information on casualties or structural damage has been released.
