Quote: "Meanwhile, the enemy continues to terrorise the contact line and border territories. Six settlements have been cut off from the power supply in Russian strikes on Donetsk Oblast, and some consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy and Kharkiv oblasts have also faced power cuts.

Some consumers in Zaporizhzhia, Kherson and Chernihiv oblasts are also suffering power outages caused by previous attacks. Repair crews work wherever the security situation allows."

The ministry added that the power supply had been resumed for 23,800 consumers over the past 24 hours.

The electricity generation and consumption situation is stable and controlled, as the power generated is sufficient to cover the needs of consumers and there is no shortage in the system.

The volume of gas in Ukrainian storage facilities increased by 26 million cubic metres over the past 24 hours. Natural gas stocks amount to almost 9.5 billion cubic metres.
