The attack caused considerable damage to the power station’s equipment. There were no reported casualties as of Saturday evening.

Companies across the energy sector are assessing damage and coordinating with system operator Ukrenergo to restore power to large parts of Ukraine without power.

This attack is the fourth of its kind on DTEK's thermal power plants in October and November.

Since the onset of the full-scale invasion, DTEK's thermal power facilities have been attacked more than 210 times.

The identify of the power station cannot be named for security reasons.
