The company’s press service reports this.
The equipment was seriously damaged. Energy workers are currently working to eliminate the consequences of the attack, the report says.
It is noted that this is the fifth massive shelling of DTEK energy facilities over the past month and a half. Prior to this, the enemy attacked the company’s thermal power plants during massive attacks on March 22 and 29, April 11 and 27.
In total, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, DTEK thermal power plants have been shelled about 180 times – during this period, 51 workers were injured from shelling at the stations, and three power engineers were killed.
Ukrainian Energy Minister German Galushchenko reported on his Facebook page that electricity generation and transmission facilities in the Poltava, Kirovograd, Zaporozhye, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk and Vinnytsia regions were attacked at night.
The consequences are being clarified, and energy workers are working to eliminate them.
The enemy wants to deprive us of the ability to sufficiently produce and transmit electricity. Economical use of electricity is the contribution of each of us to victory. Responsible consumption in the morning and evening hours is especially important,” the minister emphasized.
