On October 25, DTEK Donetsk Grids specialists were able to completely or partially restore electricity to residents of 5 settlements, de-energized due to shelling, thus restoring electricity to homes of 5,557 families in the frontline Donetsk region. 

Active hostilities are ongoing in the Donetsk region. According to the Donetsk RMA, shelling of the region continues. In particular, Lyman community was shelled 18 times yesterday. 

Due to constant damage of grids and equipment by shelling, 116 settlements remain without electricity, as specialists of the energy company do not have access to work there.
