Ukrinform
Due to a Russian combined attack on the night of October 5, Naftogaz facilities were damaged for the second time in a week — direct hits and destruction were reported.

According to Ukrinform, this was announced by Naftogaz CEO Serhii Koretskyi on Facebook.

“Overnight, Russia once again carried out a massive combined attack on gas infrastructure. Civilian facilities that supply people with gas during the heating season were targeted. Unfortunately, there have been hits and destruction,” the statement reads.

Company specialists and emergency crews are currently working at the sites, eliminating the consequences and assessing the extent of the damage.

“The facilities that were hit have no military significance whatsoever. These maniacal terrorist strikes have only one goal — to deprive Ukrainians of gas, heat, and electricity. Russia is a terrorist state,” Koretskyi emphasized.
