‼️ Russia is committing energy genocide against Ukrainians

Russia's campaign of strikes against Ukraine's energy sector during the harshest frosts is not a series of "episodes" and not a "military necessity." It’s a systematic operation aimed at destroying living conditions.

Through their own efforts, the unit has already covered most of the required costs. $3,000 is still needed to complete the restoration.
