Details: As a result of the strike, a fire broke out at one of the facilities. One worker was injured. He was given first aid and then hospitalised.

After some time, Russian forces launched a second strike on the same facility, attempting to cause even greater destruction.

Operations at the attacked facility have been suspended. An assessment of the damage will be carried out after an all-clear is given in the oblast.

Background:

  • On 5 July, Russian forces once again deliberately attacked the extraction assets of the Naftogaz Group. Several facilities in Poltava, Kharkiv and Sumy oblasts came under attack simultaneously.
  • On the morning of 4 July, Russian drones attacked one of the Naftogaz Group's gas production assets in Poltava Oblast, causing a fire and forcing the suspension of operations.
