russia continues to carry out terrorist attacks on civilian and energy facilities in Ukraine.

Today, April 2, due to intense shelling, the DTEK Energy thermal power plant was again damaged. According to preliminary information, there were no victims.

As a result of the attack, the company's equipment was damaged. Currently, the station has stopped producing electricity.

After the shelling stops, the energy workers can start eliminating the attack's consequences and restoring the equipment's operation.

For safety, only critically needed employees are at the facilities.

DTEK Energy continues to do everything possible to maintain the reliable operation of the Ukrainian energy system in the face of massive enemy attacks. The company synchronizes its actions with NEC "Ukrenergo."

Since September of last year, DTEK Energy power plants have been attacked 30 times. As a result, three energy workers died, and 28 were injured. There were also deaths and injuries among workers of contracting organizations and rescuers.
