As a result of massive shelling of the Kharkiv oblast and the city of Kharkiv on the night of February 3, critically important facilities of the PJSC “Kharkiv CHP Plant-5”, as well as the “Kharkivska” and “Zalyutyne” electrical substations, were damaged. This was reported by Mayor Ihor Terekhov at a meeting of the city commission on technogenic and environmental safety and emergency situations..
According to him, part of the equipment at these facilities suffered severe destruction. As a result, heat supply was cut off to 929 facilities, of which 853 are residential buildings. Nearly 105,000 households were left without heating.
“The absence of heating and the disruption of stable operation of life-support systems during the winter period poses a real threat to the life and health of people, primarily children, the elderly, and low-mobility citizens”, - the mayor noted.
