This was reported by the head of the Odesa Regional Military Administration Oleh Kiper, writes UNN.
Tonight was another test for the south of Odesa region. Due to cynical enemy strikes on energy facilities, more than 95,000 people in 42 settlements were left without electricity.
Kiper noted that the most difficult situation is in Kiliya. Here, more than 200 houses, where 9,000 people live, do not have gas and centralized heating. Heating there is only possible with electricity. Without electricity, these are thousands of cold homes. The enemy understands well where it is striking.

Additionally, 10 aid points will be deployed. If necessary, the volume of aid will be increased.
Points of invincibility and heating are operating in every district. There is backup power, hot tea, and people who can help.
Emergency recovery work is ongoing. Energy workers are doing everything possible to restore heat and light to people as soon as possible.
