A kamikaze drone attack damaged an energy infrastructure facility in Ternopil. The city was partially cut off from electricity and water supply, and utilities are working to restore it using generators.
Ternopil is without electricity due to the aggressor's drones hitting an energy infrastructure facility. In addition, there is no cold water in the city, as the water utility facilities are currently de-energized. The RMA reported the downing of three drones.

The mayor of Ternopil, Serhiy Nadal, said the following on live TV:
An energy infrastructure facility was destroyed as a result of an enemy attack using kamikaze drones. The city was left without electricity. As a result, there were problems with water and heat supply and sewerage. Now the electricity supply has been partially restored. Part of the city is running on backup generators. Power engineers continue to work to restore power supply. In addition, overnight, the utility provided sewerage and water supply networks with backup generators. Some boiler houses are now supplying heating via district heating. That is, water supply, sewerage and heating have been restored
As for water in Ternopil, the answer was given by Volodymyr Kuzma, head of the Ternopil Vodokanal.
He said that cold water supply was temporarily suspended in the city. The reason is that the water utility's facilities were de-energized.
Wastewater at the sewage pumping stations was partially pumped out using backup power supplies - generators. After the power company restored electricity to us, which happened gradually and at some facilities, we resumed the operation of water pumping stations and after a while returned to normal operation
The head of the Ternopil RMA, Vyacheslav Nehoda, said that they managed to shoot down three enemy drones. However, the other drones were not shot down - they hit the target.
