DTEK is running low on inventories of spare parts to fix power infrastructure damaged by russian shelling.

“We have already used up the stockpiles of equipment which we had in our depots after the first two waves of attacks since Oct. 10,” Dmytro Sakharuk, executive director of  DTEK, said on TV.

DTEK was able to buy some equipment in the market but needs to purchase millions of dollars worth of spare parts as procurement problems are mounting amid soaring prices, he said.

Preliminary estimate of damage to DTEK from Russian attacks is estimated in millions of dollars, according to Dmytro Sakharuk.
