In Zaporizhzhia, work continues to restore electricity and gas supply after the massive air attack carried out by Russian forces last night.

According to Ukrinform, Head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration Ivan Fedorov reported this on Telegram.

“Today, energy workers worked without pause. As of now, electricity has been restored to most consumers. However, work is still ongoing,” he wrote.

At the same time, for safety reasons, buildings damaged by the strikes remain disconnected from gas. This includes three apartment blocks and 32 private houses, Fedorov specified.

He added that specialists will restore gas supply to homes after all systems are checked and repaired.

The regional head expressed gratitude to all workers who are eliminating the consequences of the attack for their critically important efforts.
