The capital is without heat: Zelensky spoke about the state of the energy system

The situation in Kyiv remains difficult, and more than 1,100 homes are still without heating.

This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy following the results of a conference call.

According to him, the situation in the capital remains difficult. The situation is also difficult in the Kharkiv region – Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal has now left for there.

Problems with energy supply are also being recorded in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Poltava, Chernihiv, Sumy regions, Zaporizhia, and Donetsk regions.

Special attention was paid to Russian attacks during the meeting. During the night, the enemy used 183 drones, of which about 110 were “Shaheeds”.

“We managed to shoot down a significant part. The interceptors worked well,” the president noted.

They also discussed the missile threat and strengthening defense.

“First, there must be additional reinforcement in the work against Russian reconnaissance drones. Second, we must continue to use all methods of protection against MLRS and, accordingly, strike at Russian positions. I am counting on the results in this regard from the Ministry of Defense and the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” Zelenskyy emphasized.

As a reminder, as of February 4, more than 1,100 apartment buildings in Kyiv remain without heat supply . More than 200 repair crews are working to restore heat supply, and their number is planned to increase in the near future.

As reported, as a result of a massive night attack in Kharkiv, CHP-5 and the Kharkivska and Zalyutyne electrical substations were damaged. Due to large-scale accidents at energy facilities , a significant part of the city was left without heat supply, and the authorities declared a local man-made emergency.
