At the same time, Fedorov emphasises that repair work will be carried out as soon as the security situation in the affected regions is secured. 

He also noted that generators are being purchased with UNICEF funding to ensure heating and water supply for facilities. Additionally, there is an agreement for financing the acquisition of 14 cogeneration units with a total capacity of 29 MW.

Background: While the aftermath of the latest Russian missile strike is still being addressed, it is difficult to make predictions about the repair works, but all resources for repairing the energy infrastructure are available.
