plant near Kiev was just wiped out. Actually most thermal power plants in Ukraine were destroyed. The electricity situation in Ukraine now is worse than pre-surrender Germany in WW II, thanks to Ukraines attack deep into Russia's refineries at first.
It doesn't matter which approach Ukraine wants to use, defensive or Kherson summer counteroffense, Russia is determined to destroy Ukraine's entire energy infrastructure. Ukraine can get 60 B package or whatever weapons they want but Ukraine can not get electricity. For Russia, it's no longer special military operation (SMO), it's real war.
