"Fortunately, there were no casualties," the company added. As for the TPP, the company's equipment was seriously damaged.

Once the bombardment stops, the power company will be able to start repairing the damage and repairing the equipment. The company is synchronising its actions with Ukrenergo, Ukraine’s national energy company.

It is noted that this TPP has been attacked several times before. Since September last year, DTEK Energo's power plants have been attacked 34 times in total. The attacks killed 3 engineers and injured 28. Independent contractors and rescue workers were also killed and injured.
