Russian drones attacked the repair crew of 'Chernihivoblenergo' yesterday while restoring an important energy facility in Chernihiv region. Despite the employees managing to avoid injuries and the vehicle sustaining minimal damage, the work continued until evening due to a reconnaissance drone flying over the scene.
«Yesterday, the enemy launched another attack on the energy system of our region. As a result, one of the important parts of the electricity supply infrastructure in the Korukivka district was damaged, leaving tens of thousands of residents without electricity,» - reported 'Chernihivoblenergo'.
The tight control of the Russians over the territory and constant attacks on electricity supply facilities complicate recovery work in the region, forcing energy workers to operate under dangerous conditions. The actions of the Russian drones once again confirm that the conflict in eastern Ukraine is not decreasing, but rather may take on new forms and require significant efforts to protect the civilian population and infrastructure.
