Recent Russian pounding of Ukraine's energy grid will pose a "new challenge" for the country this winter, the President of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Odile Renaud-Basso, has told Euronews.
Ukraine is facing its fourth winter since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022. In the months running up to the start of the country's heating season, the EBRD was working with Ukraine's state-run oil and gas company Naftogaz to ensure that Ukraine has sufficient gas storage to cover the winter.
