“We will have to endure these conditions throughout the winter,” Kyiv Deputy Mayor Petro Pandeleev told Ukrainian television.
Residents of Kyiv are obliged to prepare for the possibility of sudden power outages throughout the winter, a municipal official of the Ukrainian capital warned yesterday.
“We will have to endure these conditions throughout the winter,” Kyiv Deputy Mayor Petro Pandeleev told Ukrainian television.
The distribution network in Kyiv, as in many other major Ukrainian cities, has suffered extensive damage due to systematic Russian missile strikes.
Workers are working nonstop to restore the system, but the situation remains difficult, Mr. Pandeleev admitted. Especially on weekdays, when consumptions are higher, the capacity is not enough to meet the demand, the official warned.
In October, Russia’s military targeted Ukrainian energy infrastructure. The risk of new Russian missile strikes on the network remains acute, the Ukrainian General Staff warned yesterday.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Smykhal expressed hope that Ukrainians will spend New Year’s Eve without power cuts, provided that there are no new Russian bombings. However, he also acknowledged that the risk of launching new missile strikes against the network is great.
