Ukraine's president said it could take days to restore electricity, with sub-zero temperatures expected this week.The agreement, mediated by Turkey and the UN, allows Ukrainian products to be transported safely to the rest of the world. The deal has helped bring down soaring global food prices. "The situation in the Odesa region is very difficult," Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his nightly address. "Unfortunately the hits were critical, so it takes more than just time to restore electricity. It doesn't take hours, but a few days."
The strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, which intensified in mid-October, have left millions of people in nearly all regions of the country without power, as temperatures drop below zero.
