“As of now, the situation in the energy industry is difficult, but controlled by Ukrenergo dispatchers.” It is important that the system has preserved and maintains its integrity. The work to overcome the consequences of the attack does not stop for a minute. Power engineers, rescuers, sappers work 24/7. Emergency shutdowns of consumers have been canceled in all regions, but shutdown schedules are now enforced,” he wrote.
Shmyhal added that Ukraine continues to import electricity from Europe.
“It was decided that for businesses that import or produce 60% of their consumption volume, blackouts do not apply,” the prime minister recalled.
He also emphasized that “the minister of energy and the head of Ukrenergo must now report to the public every day, providing a complete picture, in particular, informing about what work is being done.”
The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.
The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.
The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes by the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are purposeful in nature.
As of the end of October, the UN reported that they were able to confirm data on the death of 12,162 civilians in Ukraine and the wounding of 26,919 since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia. The organization emphasized that the real data could be much higher.
