As Russia is deliberately attacking energy infrastructure causing thousands to have no electricity or heating, well sweet justice has been restored in Belgorod.
The Russian Belgorod government Vyacheslav Gladkov is urging resident to “temporarily evacuate” to areas where this is power.
This echoes what took place last Friday in Ukraine when the Mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko is urged residents to leave the city following a brutal air attack leaving thousands of Ukrainians without heating and power.
Gladkov wrote on Telegram, “In no way am I saying that we need to abandon all our belongings and start moving to another region.
“Absolutely not.
“What we need to do is understand the sequence of our actions in the event of a complex, emergency situation, when there might be no heat or electricity.”

Officials are considering to remove the Russian residents to other areas which is able to accommodate large numbers of people and families.
Russian officials are urging families to send their children to other family members “where there is heat and electricity.”
Shaun Pinner the author of Live, Fight and Survive wrote for us this morning, “Last night, Ukraine endured what officials described as the largest use of ballistic missiles so far this year, another night in which air-raid sirens, interceptions, explosions, and emergency shutdowns defined civilian life.
“This was not a battle for territory or manoeuvre; it was a campaign of sustained pressure, delivered at speed and at scale, aimed squarely at the systems that keep ordinary life functioning.
“Preliminary reporting from Ukraine’s Air Force and emergency services indicates a layered strike package designed to stretch air defences and exhaust response capacity.
“Approximately–25 various missiles were launched, supplemented by 293 drones in multiple waves. Interception rates were high, but by design ballistic trajectories are harder to defeat, and several penetrations were recorded.
“The outcome was predictable: selective damage to energy infrastructure and preventive power cuts to stop cascading grid failures.”
Last Friday Russia attacked the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv with 36 missiles and 242 drones leaving almost 6,000 residential buildings with no power or heating at a time when temperatures have fallen below -10C.
Klitschko said, “We are doing everything we can to resolve this as quickly as possible. However, the combined attack on Kyiv last night was the most devastating for the capital’s critical infrastructure.”
He added, “I appeal to the residents of the capital, who have the opportunity to temporarily leave the city for places where there are alternative sources of power and heat, to do so.”
