The Russia–Ukraine conflict continued to affect energy infrastructure on Tuesday night, with a Russian ballistic missile striking a power plant in Kyiv, according to reports published on Wednesday. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticised the lack of advance warning about the strike, while reports also described attacks involving cargo ships near Bulgaria.
The latest developments underline the continuing risks to power generation, transport and energy supply chains across the region. Ukraine has continued to seek international support as attacks on infrastructure create additional pressure on electricity supply and emergency services.
The conflict remains relevant to financial markets because damage to energy facilities and transport routes can affect fuel availability, commodity prices and investor sentiment.
