191 settlements in the Donetsk region remain without electricity. The difficult situation continues in Mariupol, where more than 200,000 families in the city are left without energy supply due to regular shelling and the inability to repair power grids. The situation is complicated by active hostilities in the city, which have not stopped for more than a week.

DTEK Donetsk Grids works continuously and does everything possible to promptly restore electricity supply to settlements affected by the fighting. The company cooperates with the Armed Forces of Ukraine to gain safe access to places with damaged power lines.
