A Ukrainian drone attack resulted in the deaths of two individuals transporting medicines in the Russian-occupied Zaporizhia region, according to TASS. Three people were injured in Russia’s Belgorod region due to a Ukrainian drone strike, as reported by the regional task force via TASS. Russian forces used a guided bomb on Bilopillia in Ukraine’s Sumy region, causing one fatality and injuring four others, according to the regional prosecutor’s office. The Ukrainian Ministry of Energy reported new power outages in Zhytomyr and Kharkiv regions following an overnight Russian attack, with network restrictions remaining in Kyiv, the Kyiv region, and the Odesa region. Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported that Russian forces destroyed a critical energy infrastructure facility, though specifics were not provided.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that the national government will assume responsibility for Kyiv’s energy management due to inadequate local response, as per Ukrinform. An attack by Ukraine left approximately 87,000 individuals without electricity in Zaporizhia, stated Russian-appointed official Yevhen Balitsky on Telegram. Oleksandr Kovalenko, spokesperson for the Zaporizhia Regional Military Administration, indicated the need to evacuate over 500 individuals from two districts by early February, with more than 700 people, including 480 children, already evacuated this month, according to Ukrinform.
