Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday that 30% of the country's power stations have been destroyed since Oct. 10 and that Russia is to blame. 

"Another kind of Russian terrorist attacks: targeting energy & critical infrastructure," Zelensky tweeted, roughly eight months into Russia President Vladimir Putin's war on his country. "Since Oct 10, 30% of Ukraine’s power stations have been destroyed, causing massive blackouts across the country."

Zelensky has rebuffed suggestions that he seek any sort of cease-fire or peace agreement with Russia and also said Tuesday, "No space left for negotiations with Putin’s regime."

Ukraine has been under heavy attack since a truck-bomb on Oct. 8 heavily damaged the bridge from Russia to Crimea, an incident Putin has called an act of terror and for which he blames the Ukraine government, at least in part. 

The Russia military has recently focused on Ukraine's critical energy infrastructure. And power outages have recently occurred in parts of at least three Ukraine cities, reports CNN, based on information from local officials

However, Zelensky's claim Tuesday so far doesn't not appear to have been officially verified.
