Major Moscow Power Plant Hit - Kyiv Responds to 'Peace' Plan with Fire and Fury

2025-11-23 | Silicon Wafers 065 | Ukraine didn’t just answer Moscow’s “peace offensive” with a strongly worded press release, but with fire and fury. Before dawn, video from the small town of Shatura – about 120 kilometres east of Moscow – flooded Telegram and X: a black sky, a sudden flash, and then a roaring fireball rising over the Shaturskaya State District Power Plant, one of the largest and oldest power stations feeding the Moscow region. (United24 Media) Who has no cards Trump, remind me again, who has no cards? While diplomats in Geneva haggle over a 28-point “peace plan” that asks Ukraine to amputate its territory and its future, someone in Kyiv appears to have sent a different kind of answer: long-range drones hitting the power that keeps Moscow’s imperial core lit and warm. The question for this episode is simple: Is turning the lights off in Moscow, Kyiv’s answer to a surrender and capitulation ultimatum dressed as “peace plan”?----------SOURCES: Kyiv Independent – “Ukraine war latest: Ukraine downs Russian Mi-8 helicopter… Ukraine's military reportedly strikes power plant in Moscow Oblast” (Nov. 23, 2025) – overview of the reported Shatura attack and context for Ukraine’s strikes on Russian energy infrastructure.United24 – “Drones strike Shatura power plant near Moscow, triggering massive blaze – video” – technical details on transformers, capacity and sanctions-hit turbines.Charter97 – “Fire at a Large Power Plant Near Moscow: New Details Have Emerged” – quotes of governor Vorobyov, damage estimates and capacity loss figures.EADaily – “Strong fire at Shaturskaya GRES after UAV attack — mass media” – confirmation of drone attack, local outages and plant history.Online.ua – “Shaturskaya GRES burns near Moscow due to drone attack” – summary of explosions, plant capacity and drone numbers.Wikipedia – “Timeline of the Russo-Ukrainian war (1 September 2025 – present)” – context on earlier strikes against Russian power plants and energy nodes.----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.
