Details
It should be noted that we have 44 settlements with the status of active, including forced, evacuation of civilians. These are virtually all the settlements along the border line, as well as those where active hostilities are taking place or which are very close to it. There is a direct danger to the lives and health of our civilians there. Of course, there are settlements where 5 people remain, 3 people even, and there are settlements such as Kupyansk where we are trying to get people out of the left bank as much as possible. There are currently 134 people left there. On the right bank, there are another 1300 people.
He noted that it is impossible to restore electricity, water and heating services on the left bank. The enemy is targeting repair crews.
Therefore, when it comes to the safety of people, we must take such measures, and evacuation is the only way to protect ourselves and our loved ones from the threat posed by the shelling. In addition, evacuation is necessary to receive all the necessary services
Consequences of the attacks Sinegubov recalled that on December 25 there was a massive rocket attack on Kharkivaimed at critical infrastructure.
13 missiles were launched: S-300, S-400, Iskander, X-59. The targets of the shelling were critical infrastructure - heat, water and power supply. We continue to eliminate the consequences around the clock. We clearly understand the extent of the damage. At the moment, about 95,000 customers in Kharkiv and 17,000 customers in Kharkiv district are still without heating and hot water. Electricity supply was restored yesterday
He noted that the Prime Minister and the relevant ministries decided not to impose electricity supply limits for Kharkiv so that people could heat their homes with electricity.
We have a clear recovery plan, but we will not publicly communicate the details. This issue is under the personal control of the President, the Prime Minister and the relevant ministries
