Ukrainian strikes on energy infrastructure have left more than 20,000 people without power in several Russian border regions.

Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said the “electricity and heating supply network has suffered severe damage” in the regional capital of the same name.
According to Governor Alexander Khinshtein who announced the situation via Telegram, a fire had broken out at one of the power plants in the village of Korenevo, cutting power to 10 localities.
Russia’s defence ministry, for its part, reported having shot down 44 drones over the border Bryansk region.
On Saturday, Russian attacks on energy infrastructure left Ukraine scrambling to turn light and heating back on, with generating capacity at one of Ukraine’s providers reduced to “zero”.
