According to Haidai: "The incident occurred in the zone of active hostilities. Currently, the repair workers have no opportunity to get there. Gas was burning for some time after the strike, but we managed to close all the valves in time.
There is no threat to the population or the environment. However, Sievierodonetsk and nearby towns have been left without gas – about 60,000 households.
A total of 36 towns and villages (131,944 households) are without gas, 30 of them have lost supply completely, and 6 partially."
