During yesterday’s missile attack on Ukraine, the Russian military hit five high-voltage substations in the central, southern and southwestern regions.
This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during the government meeting. “Yesterday, Ukraine experienced the thirteenth major air attack against our energy system. Russian terrorists do not stop trying to destroy our energy system, deprive us of heat and light. This time, the main target of the enemy was the high-voltage infrastructure. Air defense forces shot down most of the missiles, but we hit five high-yielding plants, substations in the central, southern, and southwestern regions,” he said.
Despite this, the prime minister added, the fact that during the meeting of the “Energy Ramstein” Ukraine managed to agree on increasing aid to the country’s energy system is very important.
“We understand how to survive this winter, but we are already preparing a plan on how to restore our energy system in the spring and summer. We are not talking about temporary solutions, but about changing approaches, building and developing decentralized generation, quality restoration and protection of distribution networks,” – he added.
