Over the course of two days, DTEK Donetsk Grids specialists, with the permission of the military, managed to completely or partially restore electricity to 10 settlements, de-energized due to hostilities, thus restoring power to 2,786 families. 

According to the head of the Donetsk region Pavlo Kyrylenko, shelling of the region continues. In particular, Avdiivka alone suffered heavy artillery shelling twice yesterday. 

Due to constant damage of grids and equipment by shelling, 110 settlements remain without electricity, as specialists of the energy company do not have access to work there. Energy workers will definitely restore electricity to all residents of the region once they obtain a permit for work performance from the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 

Bad weather does not bypass Donetsk region as well: specialists of the energy company have also restored electricity to more than 10,000 homes in 33 settlements, de-energized due to thunderstorm and hurricane.
