19/20 takes stock of the information from the last 24 hours in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.

Ukraine and Russia are experiencing their 641st day of conflict, Monday November 27, a record storm, more than a year of mobilization in Russia and fears regarding Zaporizhia… Here is what we should remember from this day.

Image of the day: record storm sweeps across the front

A storm hit several places affected by the conflict, such as Crimea, which experienced a record storm. The last comparable episode dates back to another Crimean War, in the middle of the 19th century. On the night of November 26-27, waves hit the coast, where Russia has installed defense systems against Ukrainian drone attacks. Other parts of the front were also swept by violent winds.

Today’s figure: 14 months of mobilization

Over the past 14 months, 300,000 Russians have been recruited to participate in the special operation in Ukraine. In principle, these are reservists who were recruited from September 2022. At the time, no information filtered out on the duration of their mobilization. For several months, their wives have been asking for a rotation system to be put in place. A subject that remains delicate for the authorities.

Quote of the day: in Zaporizhia, “a precarious situation in terms of security and nuclear safety”

At the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, according to the International Energy Agency, a “incident highlights the precarious nuclear security and safety situation at the site during the ongoing military conflict”. The nuclear power plant no longer provides electricity to the region, on the contrary, it consumes electricity to cool itself. This power supply has been temporarily interrupted. The plant is constantly monitored by international inspectors who believe additional measures could and should be taken.
