Pravda Ukraine
The Russians have badly damaged the Zmiivka Thermal Power Plant (TPP), one of the largest TPPs in Kharkiv Oblast.

Details: The strike on 22 March destroyed all the blocks and damaged auxiliary equipment of the plant. The degree of destruction varies: part of the TPP was completely destroyed, and part significantly damaged.
As of now, the rubble is being cleared. There is no access to most of the equipment.
Therefore, there are no opportunities to accurately assess the extent of the damage, precise figures regarding the amount needed for restoration or any forecasts regarding repair time.
Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko visited the thermal power plant and promised donors’ assistance.
Quote from Halushchenko: “We have money. There is a fund to support the energy sector. It is operational. Therefore, everyone is ready to help!”
