Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, has now revealed the true cause of the attacks on the power grid.
According to Vladimir Putin, the strikes on Ukraine’s power grid were carried out in retaliation for the drone attack in Crimea.
At a news conference on Monday (October 31), Russian President Putin said that Ukrainian drones used the same maritime lanes that grain shipments had been allowed to use as part of an UN-mediated agreement.
The attack’s perpetrators have not, however, been identified, and Kyiv (the Ukrainian capital) has denied exploiting the security corridor for the grain programme for military objectives. On the other hand, Ukraine was also backed by the UN.
