As a result of Russia's morning attack on Kharkiv and the region, the thermal power plant that supplies the city was damaged. This was reported by the Kharkiv City Council as stated by Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov, UNN reports.

"As a result of another shelling by the Russian Federation this morning, on April 11, in Kharkiv region, the CHP plant that supplies the city was damaged and the transformer substation was completely destroyed," Terekhov was quoted as saying in the city council.

"There is a lack of voltage in the power grid because we have very serious destruction of transformer substations and thermal power plants in Kharkiv and the region. That is why we still have blackout schedules in place. We will try to restore the city's energy structure as soon as possible. This is a very serious challenge, but our utilities and all energy companies are working on it," said Terekhov.

According to him, despite the significant destruction, the city continues to function.

"We have restored the subway, launched trolleybus and some tram routes. But Kharkiv really needs a modern air defense system now. Without it, everything we restore will be attacked by the enemy again," the mayor emphasized.

In particular, train traffic was reportedly resumed on the Saltivska line of the subway . The resumption of transportation on the Oleksiyivska and Kholodnohirsko-Zavodska lines will be announced later. After another shelling of critical infrastructure by Russia, ground passenger transport in Kharkiv is running under a temporary blackout schedule.

Despite constant enemy shelling, the city authorities and specialized services have a clear action plan for the sustainable operation of heat and power supply systems, the city council said.

According to Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov, experts are working with relevant ministries, international partners and banks to restore critical infrastructure.

"We need to change a lot of things. This requires money and time. But we will do everything possible and impossible to restore everything that Russia has destroyed as soon as possible," Terekhov emphasized.

Terekhov also noted that the Office of the President and other cities and regions of Ukraine provide Kharkiv with generators and fuel to help it withstand regular hostile attacks on the energy sector.
