Occupiers damaged five energy facilities in Chernihiv region
On the night of January 19, Russian occupiers carried out powerful strikes on the energy infrastructure of Chernihiv region, according to Chernihivoblenergo.
As a result of the attack, five key facilities were damaged, leading to widespread power outages. Tens of thousands of consumers were left without electricity, and energy workers have already begun emergency restoration work.
Repair crews of Chernihivoblenergo are working under difficult conditions due to the threat of renewed shelling.
“During the night, Russians damaged five important energy facilities in Chernihiv region — tens of thousands of consumers were left without power,” the company said. Specialists are doing everything possible to restore electricity quickly, but the security situation significantly complicates the process.
Ukrenergo confirmed attacks on the energy systems in several regions of Ukraine over the past day. Power outages were recorded in Chernihiv, Odesa, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk regions. Emergency crews are beginning restoration wherever local conditions allow.
As a reminder, Russia previously struck Kharkiv with ballistic missiles.
The day before, we reported that Kharkiv was under a missile attack, resulting in deaths and injuries. Russian forces attacked Kharkiv and the surrounding region again — three people were killed and eleven injured.
