DTEK Donetsk Grids restored electricity to 15,000 families, affected by bad weather

Bad weather continues to rage in the Donetsk region. Heavy rains and squally wind caused fallen trees, damaged power lines and over a dozen collapsed poles. Continuous shelling of the Donetsk region by the enemy adds complexities. Nevertheless, over the course of the day DTEK Donetsk Grids specialists managed to restore power to 14 settlements, de-energized due to adverse weather conditions, thus restoring electricity to 15,000 families. Energy workers continue to work on power restoration for another 16,000 families, affected by bad weather, and put maximum effort to restore electricity to every home as soon as possible.
