Into The Darkness of Ukraine

ALLA AND I JUST LAUNCHED A NEW FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN TO PURCHASE DRONE DETECTORS
Please, support it????????????????
Synelnykove Ukraine is in darkness.Over the weekend, the Russian Federation targeted substations that supply power to the Khmelnytsky and Rivne nuclear power plants, leaving millions of consumers without electricity.Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha noted, these were not random, but well-planned attacks.
The pervasive sense of impunity within the Kremlins leadership has had devastating effects on a country already ravaged by twelve years of war, four of which have been large-scale.The conflict has escalated so much in the past 10 monthsthatmore Ukrainians are starting to believe that the Pilate-like stance of many leaders, mainly that of the White House, has effectively given Russian terrorism free rein.
Its hard to interpretattacks on nuclear power plants that are clearly meant to threaten Europes securityin any other way. Especially when they are carried out by those who illegally occupy and use Europes largest nuclear power plant as a shield, from which they hide behind and launch devastating attacks like those on Ukraine in recent hours. These areterrorist acts in every sense, yet being left with no concrete response.
This explains why the Governing Council of the International Atomic Energy Agency needs to be urgently convened, as requested by Ukraine after its Enerhodar nuclear power plant was once again connected to backup power supplies by Russian militias holding it hostage, and after the Khmelnytsky and Rivne power plants had to reduce their energy output due to the indirect attacks they suffered.
Power surges are so frequent and widespread that they pose a threat to the safety of medical devices, digital services, and traffic flow. Blinding flashes from streetlights suddenly cause blackouts, leading to serious inconvenience, especially for drivers in the eastern parts of the country, where dusk starts around 4 p.m. These intense voltage fluctuations also disrupt water supplies, prompting cities like Kremenchuk to implement time-based water schedules: three hours in the morning from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. (or 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on holidays) and three in the evening from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Recently, as part of an attack on the Koriukiv district, the Russian Federation targeted one of Ukraines largest biomass thermal power plants in Chernihiv. It was less than ten years old, but, as its name Clear Energy implies, it quickly became a standard for Ukrainian cogeneration plants dedicated to achieving energy independence, primarily through local resources, which have grown elevenfold since 2015.
Ukraine responded by attacking the TEC-1 thermoelectric power plant in Voronezh, the largest supplier of heat for residential and industrial users in that city, leaving more than 200,000 Russians without power. This shows how systematic attacks on energy infrastructure have become a new reality in this war. Small-scale actions have turned into a deliberate campaign, worsened by ongoing Russian strikes on Ukraines civilian infrastructure. These are also acts of terrorism. Like the one Idocumentedlive Saturday morning in Dnipro, after a Russian Geran drone crashed into the facade of an apartment building in the Sobornyi Raion residential district. This caused three deaths, 13 injuries, and 28 others (including five children) who were rescued from the rubble of their homes in that neighborhood, which is part of Ukraines third-largest city. Before dawn, Moscow had launched another 457 identical UAVs across the rest of the country, along with 25 Iskander-M ballistic missiles, 10 Iskander-K cruise missiles, three Kalibr missiles, seven Kinzhal hypersonic aeroballistic missiles, and nine other types.
Five hundred and three missiles in a single night, which, had they fallen on any other European city, would have triggered World War III, but which face no concrete response from the international community because they were directed against Ukraine.The images I capturedimmediately after that brutal attack leave a void even darker than the chasm opened in the facade of a building. And where is my mother? a little girl pulled from the rubble asked the police who saved her. In its innocent spontaneity, its a question that should be asked by those who, in absentia, are plunging Ukraine into darkness through their indolence.
Through our crowdfunding campaign, we aim to purchase and install drone detection devices on each of our vehicles to protect against drone attacks in hot zones.Anti-drone РЕБ devices have proven effective against traditional wireless drones, but are completely ineffective against those connected via fiber-optic cables. We are launching this new campaign to ensure that none of those devices will hit us when we approach the frontlines where we write our articles.Your support will not only protect us but also the civilians and defenders within the devices range.

进入乌克兰的黑暗

乌克兰的现场报道????????
斯涅尔尼克沃（Synelnykove）乌克兰陷入黑暗之中。周末期间，俄罗斯联邦瞄准了给赫梅利纽克和利恩核电站供电的变电站发动了攻击，导致数百万用户断电。乌克兰外交部长安德烈西比哈指出：这些攻击都不是随机的袭击。
克里姆林宫领导层长期能够逍遥法外，已对这个在十二年的战争中饱受蹂躏的国家带来了毁灭性影响，其中四年属于大规模战争。在过去的十个月里，冲突升级得如此严重，以至于越来越多的乌克兰人开始相信，许多领导人，尤其是白宫的彼拉多式立场，实际上给了俄罗斯的恐怖主义免死金牌。
很难以其他方式解读这些显然旨在威胁欧洲安全的核电站攻击，尤其是当这些攻击是由非法占领并利用欧洲最大核电站为盾牌的罪犯们发动时，他们躲在核电站后面，对乌克兰的发动毁灭性袭击，就如最近几个小时所做的那样。这些无疑是恐怖主义行为，但至今没有收到强烈的回应。
这解释了为什么国际原子能机构的理事会需要按照乌克兰的要求紧急召开会议，此前乌克兰的埃内罗达尔核电站再次被俄罗斯武装挟持并将其置于备用电源之下，并以及赫梅利纽克和利恩电厂因遭受间接攻击而不得不减少能源输出。

由于电涌非常频繁且普遍存在，严重威胁到医疗设备、数字服务和交通运输的安全。路灯突然闪烁发出的强烈闪光导致停电，给人们带来极大不便，尤其是在国家东部地区，那里傍晚4点左右天色开始变暗。这些剧烈的电压波动还影响到供水，促使克雷梅尼茨克等城市采取定时供水措施：早上6点到9点（节假日为8点到11点）供水三小时，晚上6点到9点再供水三小时。
最近，作为对科里乌基夫区袭击的一部分，俄罗斯还攻击了位于切尔尼戈夫的乌克兰最大的生物质热电厂。该厂只有不到十年的历史，但正如其名清洁能源所示，它迅速成为乌克兰热电联产厂致力于实现能源自给的标杆，主要依靠本地资源，自2015年以来增长了十一倍。

乌克兰作为回应，袭击了沃罗涅日的TEC-1热电站，这也是该市最大的住宅和工业用户供热供应商，导致超过20万俄罗斯人断电。这表明，对能源基础设施系统性攻击已成为这场战争的新常态。小规模行动演变成有计划的战役，俄罗斯对乌克兰民用基础设施的持续打击使情况变得更糟。这些也是恐怖主义行为。
我在星期六早晨在第聂伯罗现场记录的一次袭击就是例证：一架俄罗斯的戈兰无人机撞上了索博尔尼区的一栋公寓楼外墙，导致3人遇难，13人受伤，另有28人（包括5名儿童）从该社区的房屋废墟中获救，该社区所在的城市是乌克兰第三大城市。黎明前，莫斯科在全国范围内又发射了另457架相同类型的无人机，以及25枚伊斯坎德尔-M弹道导弹、10枚伊斯坎德尔-K巡航导弹、3枚卡利布尔导弹、7枚疾风高超声速弹道导弹和9种其他类型导弹。
在一个夜晚发射了503枚导弹，如果落在任何其他欧洲城市，早已引发了第三次世界大战，但由于这些导弹针对的只是乌克兰，国际社会至今没有作出强烈的回应。我在那场残酷袭击后即时拍摄的图片，留下的空洞比已被炸裂的建筑外墙裂缝还要深邃。我妈妈在哪里？一个从废墟中拉出来的小女孩向救她的警察询问。这天真纯粹的疑问，应由那些因无动于衷、渎职而让乌克兰陷入黑暗的人提出。
