On November 23, 2025, the Shatura power station in the Moscow region was hit by Ukrainian drones, according to reports. The facility, located 120km east of Moscow, suffered a significant fire. Heating was disrupted for numerous locals as temperatures plummeted. Officials stated that some drones evaded defences and landed on the site. Backup power was initiated, and temporary heating was provided. The plant, generating over 20% of the region's power with its 1500 MW capacity, was constructed in the 1920s.
