Power outages were recorded in Nikopol, Marhanets, Pokrov, and a number of neighboring settlements. According to the company, enemy attacks on August 5 caused significant damage to the region's energy infrastructure. As a result, a large number of household consumers in several communities across Dnipropetrovsk region were left without electricity.
Energy workers began emergency recovery efforts as soon as the security situation allowed specialists to reach the damaged facilities and begin repairs.
At the same time, DTEK warned that the scale of the damage is significant, so fully restoring the electricity supply will take time. The company has not yet announced an exact deadline for completing the work.
Specialists are inspecting the damaged equipment, determining the scope of repairs required, and gradually restoring the operation of the energy infrastructure. The priority task remains returning electricity to the homes of residents of the affected settlements.
We are doing everything possible to return electricity to every home as quickly as possible. The battle for light continues
Energy workers continue working to eliminate the consequences of the Russian attacks. Restoration work will be carried out with consideration for the security situation in the region, as repeated shelling may pose a threat to repair crews.
