Quote by Kharkivoblenergo: “Today, an explosion occurred 200 metres away from power engineers who were checking a high-voltage line in the village of Slobozhanske, Lypetsk hromada, damaged as a result of a nighttime Russian attack. A guided air bomb exploded.”
Details: Hanhan reported that this is the second such incident in 24 hours.
Quote: “The same crew was attacked in the village of Vesele yesterday, on 8 January. The power engineers went to restore power supply after an attack, and projectiles started exploding around them. The current weather conditions make it difficult to flee dangerous areas quickly – the road is covered in ice. Luckily, none of the engineers were injured in these two incidents, but power networks were damaged.”
