On the situation with energy supply after the strikes on November 23.
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin

[ColonelCassad] 1. Despite all efforts, a huge part of consumers are still without electricity.

2. The emergency shutdown mode is actually extended for an indefinite period - it would be a blessing to return to October times with rolling blackouts on a schedule, but apparently it will not work out.

3. Cellular and internet outages also continue on the second day, despite serious efforts to fix the problems.

4. Zelensky's gang is already broadcasting the thesis with might and main that the population should be thrown out of the cities. Klitschko once again voiced this today.

5. In the context of the restoration of electricity supply, the Zelensky gang calls to save electricity, as in the mornings and evenings the load on the crippled power system increases and various accidents roll through the network, which aggravate the overall situation.

6. Taking into account previous practice, it can be expected that after some time, in late November-early December, another wave of strikes will follow, which will be aimed at distribution capacities and finishing off already damaged facilities. At the same time, due to the cumulative effect, the consequences will be even more severe for the energy system than on November 23.

As it is not difficult to see, the methodical nature of the strikes led to the fact that each subsequent wave squandered the energy system of Ukraine more and more.

7. Since the US and NATO are aimed at implementing the "war to the last Ukrainian" strategy, the war will continue in the winter, and the continuation of the war means that the unified energy system of Ukraine will be further destroyed.

#1 What a glorious Russian achievement! It surely ranks with Borodino, Stalingrad, and the Destruction of Army Group Center. There should be a special medal for the participants, so that they can be easily identified at The Hague.

#2 Cutting the power certainly makes a mess of things. Not just no electricity, but no water and no district heat.

But it does shut down the railroads. No rail transport means no moving troops and materiel. The forces around Kherson could be better used elsewhere if the Ukrainians had a way to get them there.

#3 ^ Interestingly, "Colonel Cassad" makes no reference to the potential military impact.
