Ukraine prepared for more Russian strikes on Monday and warned of the possibility for a new round of evacuations from the capital during a relative lull from the airstrikes on energy facilities and other key infrastructure in recent weeks.
In the West, meanwhile, preparations were stepped up to boost humanitarian aid to Ukraine so that the population can enjoy some warmth during their coldest months of need and keep the resolve of the nation as high as possible.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said that part of the city's 3 million people might well have to be evacuated to places where essential services would be less prone to shutdowns caused by missile attacks. Russian President Vladimir Putin "continues trying to make Ukraine a black hole -- no light, no electricity, no heating to put the Ukrainians into the darkness and the cold," said European foreign policy chief Josep Borrell. "So we have to continue our support providing more material for the Ukrainians to face the winter without electricity."
Ukraine's energy provider Ukrenergo said Monday that it is still short 27% of output after Russian strikes on energy infrastructure. "The scale and complexity of the damage are high, and repair works have continued around the clock," the company said in a statement. "People are sheltering in the basements, many of which are filled by water," said Donetsk Gov. Pavlo Kyrylenko. "They have been living in catastrophic conditions without power or heating."
