TEHRAN, Oct. 18 (MNA) – Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said on Tuesday that 30% of power plants had been damaged in his country since October 10.

"Since October 10, 30% of Ukrainian power plants have been destroyed causing mass outages across the country," Zelensky wrote on Twitter.

"No opportunity left for talks with [Russian President Vladimir] Putin," the Ukrainian president added, according to TASS.

Putin said at an emergency Security Council meeting last week that a massive strike with long-range precision weapons had been inflicted on Ukrainian energy, military command and communications facilities. He also warned Kyiv that any terrorist attacks in Russia would be met with a stiff response.
