Energy facilities in western Ukraine hit hardest by Russian night attack — PM Svydyrenko
Prime Minister Yulia Svirydenko says that energy facilities in the western regions of Ukraine were most affected by Russia's night attack.
"Immediately after the night shelling, we coordinated all services to eliminate the consequences of today's attack. The enemy used more than 600 drones and dozens of missiles. This was a deliberate, cynical, Russian strike on the eve of Christmas. At a time when people are preparing for the holiday, the enemy tried to leave Ukrainian families without light, warmth and a sense of security," Svyrydenko said on Telegram.
According to her, energy facilities in the western regions of Ukraine were most affected by the attack.
"Due to the enemy's actions, emergency shutdown schedules are being used across the country. They will be canceled immediately after the situation in the energy system stabilizes," the prime minister said.
Svyrydenko emphasized that regional military administrations and all relevant services are already working to restore power supply to people as soon as possible.
