Details: Energy workers have begun repairing the facility, but the process will take into account the prevailing security situation.

Background:

  • The Ukrainian Ministry of Energy convened an urgent meeting of the G7+ coordination group following the large-scale Russian overnight strikes on the energy sector, seeking international assistance.
  • During a drone attack on the night of 3-4 October, Russian forces also damaged several critical electricity facilities in Chernihiv Oblast, which energy officials described as an "act of genocide" against the local population.
