In the Donetsk region, as a result of strikes by Russian invaders on energy facilities, Druzhkivka, Kostiantynivka, and part of Kramatorsk have been left without power.

According to Ukrinform, this was reported by the head of the Donetsk Regional State Administration, Vadym Filashkin, on Telegram.

“Part of Donetsk region is without power as a result of enemy shelling. In particular, the entire cities of Druzhkivka and Kostiantynivka, as well as some areas of Kramatorsk, are without power,” Filashkin said.

As the head of the Regional State Administration emphasized, "the Russians continue to deliberately target critical infrastructure. Today, their target is the energy sector."

The authorities and responsible services remain in place and continue to work, Filashkin stressed.

“As soon as the security situation allows, specialists will immediately restore power supply,” the head of the Regional State Administration emphasized.
