## Summary

Russian forces struck six major power substations across four Ukrainian regions overnight on 10–11 November, disrupting electricity supplies and adding pressure to the grid ahead of winter. The attacks followed a similar strike the previous night, as demand for electricity and heating is expected to rise.

Ukrenergo reported outages affecting consumers in eight regions, while emergency repairs continue and emergency outages remain in place in Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk. Kyiv is temporarily switching off municipal streetlights to conserve power for essential facilities; household outage schedules are unaffected. In Kryvyi Rih, a strike on a district heating facility disrupted heat to residential buildings.
