- The UK has opened a criminal case in connection with the Ukrainian Armed Forces attack on a power facility in Kursk.


A criminal case has been opened in connection with a targeted attack by militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) on an energy facility in Kursk. This was reported on April 16 by the Investigative Committee (IC) of the Russian Federation.
"The Main Military Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of Russia has opened a criminal case on the grounds of a crime under paragraphs "a", "b", part 2 of Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Terrorist act")," the department's Telegram channel said.
The investigation revealed that on April 15, 2025, the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked a high-voltage line located in the Kursk Railway District with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). As a result, residents were left without electricity.
It is specified that those involved in the crime will be brought to justice.
Earlier, on April 15, it was reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked Russian energy facilities six times a day. The strikes were carried out in Bryansk, Kursk and Kherson regions. In the Kursk region, attacks on gas pipelines in the regional center were recorded, as a result of which the gas supply to 186 subscribers was stopped.
On March 28, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia reserves the right not to observe a moratorium on strikes on energy infrastructure if the Ukrainian side continues to violate relevant agreements.
