In August, the enemy continued to mercilessly shell Donetsk region and attack it with drone, missile and air strikes. Despite all difficulties and constant danger, DTEK Donetsk Grids specialists managed to completely or partially restore power to 374 settlements, thus restoring electricity to homes of 779,258 families.

Restoring electricity in the Donetsk region is becoming increasingly difficult. Nevertheless, energy workers continue to work despite everything. In particular, specialists of the energy company energized 96 settlements and restored electricity to 277,900 homes in the frontline region last week alone.

Specialists of the energy company continue to repair grids and equipment and will definitely restore electricity to all residents of the region once they obtain permission for work performance from the Armed Forces of Ukraine. However, working in the Donetsk region is very dangerous already. Despite all security measures, energy workers again came under fire during performance of restoration activities last month.
